Cider with Rosie

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Cider With Rosie is a 1959 book by Laurie Lee, the first book of a trilogy consising of As I Walked Out One Midsummer Morning (1969) and A Moment of War (1991).

It is an account of his childhood in the village of Slad in Gloucestershire in England, in the period soon after the First World War.

The identity of Rosie was revealed years later to be his distant cousin Rosalind Buckland (BBC documentary Once Upon A Time In A Village, 4th January 2007).

It is an account of the traditional village life which disappeared with developments such as the coming of the motor car, and also of the experience of childhood seen from many years later.

It has been dramatized for television by the BBC, and is also sometimes a part of the curriculum in English classes in schools.
