Summary
"Anthropologists George and Sharon Gmelch have lived among the itinerant people known as Travellers since their first fieldwork in the early 1970s. In 2011 they returned to seek out families they had knows decades before--shadowed by a film crew and taking with them hundreds of old photographs that they shared with Traveller friends and acquaintances. Many of those black-and-white photos are included in this book, alongside more recent photos and personal narratives that reveal how Travellers lives have changed and what it means to be a Traveller today"--
