Summary/Abstract |
A CURIOUS DOG first leapt out of the bushes. It sniffed everything around it. Then it ran on. There was its mistress. The high boots that in England are called Wellingtons. Khaki jodhpurs. A green oilcloth jacket with a brown velvet collar. And the woman herself was a blonde with a distinctive (if not characteristic) bump in her nose, clearly passed down from her Norman ancestors.
