    I loved this video. Of the two, I believe I would prefer the color of I Walked By Night. Thank you for bringing this to my attention.

      Good man, yor self there. l wuz at it in the early 80s, the law was a bit different back then. Not like the last 20 odd year's, they can take everything, plus fines and bans. Still but, you'll never stop a man taking there pets / companions, for a stroll in the countryside.

    Excellent review, I have a copy of I Walked by Night, given to me by my Uncle in the sixties. I was unaware of the second book but I have ordered it today. Many thanks
