    Preface by: Laurie Lee (1992)
    Spanning the first twenty-three years of his remarkable life, Laurie Lee's celebrated autobiographical trilogy is presented here in one delightful volume.
    Beginning with 'Cider with Rosie', Laurie Lee writes evocatively of his idyllic childhood in the Cotswolds of the twenties, a world of rich sensuousness and native innocence. 'As I Walked Out One Midsummer Morning' picks up the story as he leaves his valley for London and then for Spain. There, equipped only with a violin and his wits, he crossed the dramatic landscape of a vibrant and still almost medieval Spain for which he developed an abiding affection. In the winter of 1937 he returned to a country now in the grip of Civil War and joined the International Brigade, describing in 'A Moment of War' his journey into the dark side of Spain with unsparing honesty and poignancy.
    Cider With Rosie: "A prose poem that flashes and winks like a prism." - H.E. Bates
    As I Walked Out One Summer Morning: "The vivid, sensitive, irresistibly readable story of what happened after he left home." - Daily Mail
    A Moment of War: "A great heart-stopping narrative of one young Englishman's part in the war in Spain... crafted by a poet, stamping an indelible image of the boredom, random cruelty and stupidity of war." - John Sweeney in the Literary Review
    The cover shows a portrait of Laurie Lee by Anthony Devas in the National Portrait Gallery, London
