A History of the Christmas Crib
Tim Everson
York Publishing, £14.99, 168 pages
Tim Everson “tries not to collect cribs”, but “he and his wife have managed to accumulate some interesting examples”. I wonder whether “and his wife” may be a bit of a stretch, as my husband’s latest clock sits in pieces on bits of greasy newspaper all over the kitchen table.
I’d quite like to share helpmeet hobbies notes with Mrs Everson. I hope that she is at least blessed by the thought that her spouse has an interest that is on the interesting side; in fact, if this account is anything to go by, it’s a fascinating one.
