Thanks to Bene Factum Publishing there has been this year(2007) a new edition of the Gordon's best  book which I am sure will enchant a new generation of readers; updated with a preface and introduction by Ken Bryant, the biographer and copyright holder of the Gordon's works, it is available from any bookshop and the web, but preferably buy it from your local independent one at £10.99 or even eBay.

It is even better value when you consider the rarity of the original and the ever increasing prices copies are fetching.

Please do NOT confuse this edition with the unauthorised and overpriced reprint from Kegan Paul being touted about on Abebooks etc at around £90, which does not have the backing of the copyright holder, myself, nor the added material in the Bene Factum Publishing authorised edition.

Our  revised edition of the book is selling really well in France, particularly in the Midi Pyrenees region where Najac, the village of the book, is sited.

The French obviously know a good thing when they see it!!

****Later original reprints of this book were titled  "Two Vagabonds in a French Village"
