Wonderful!


(5 stars)

I am always so thrilled when I see another recording by BettyB, and the Carpenter's series is such fun to listen to. As ever, he relates fascinating tales of local costume, custom, and types of profession. Highly recommended, and if you enjoy this, seek out his other works also ready by BettyB. Great stuff
