My Uncle Silas

Uncle Silas, the rural reprobate, was popularized in H.E. Bates' magazine short stories. This complete collection is illustrated by Edward Ardizzonne's original drawings - perfectly capturing the little red-thatched house atop a violet-banked lane. Over the course of 95 years Uncle Silas led an active life, and loved to boast of his daring fights, and the women whose hearts he'd captured, over a glass of cowslip wine.
