Description

Liam Mulvin loves his job as a country postman. For decades he has crossed farmyards, moors and fields to deliver the mail to his appreciative rural customers. As he goes about his work, Liam shares, in a series of short essays, the country characters he comes across, the unexpected dilemmas and dramas he encounters. He muses about the unusual wildlife behaviour he stumbles across, he battles with the weather and he delivers the mail come what may. This is a thoroughly enjoyable book in which to dip in and out - or to devour in one sitting. It is a refreshing celebration of a rural community which functions best when knitted together by those, like Liam, who go that extra mile. AUTHOR: Liam Mulvin currently delivers the mail from St Mawes Sub Post Office and has worked as a postman since 1972. He is a member of a Cornish writers group and is a local Watch Keeper for the National Coastwatch Institute. He has also written for Western Morning News and Ireland's Own magazine.
