There's a lot of past, and there's getting to be more and more of it every minute. Richard and Cynthia Weatherspoon, aged ten and eight ("and three-quarters"), are living as (step)brother and sister in the midtwentieth century.

There's a lot of past, and there's getting to be more and more of it every minute. Richard and Cynthia Weatherspoon, aged ten and eight ("and three-quarters"), are living as (step)brother and sister in the midtwentieth century. But when they and their parents call on old Granny Ogden, the children discover that when they unlock Mrs. Ogden's back door, a path appears that simply isn't there to anybody else. They walk down the path with their dog, Timmy, escorted by a Magpie, and find themselves in the days of the Model T Ford where they meet their grandparents and sinister villains are foiled. As the children get older, through their early and later teenage years and early adulthood, subsequent travels down the path with other birds as escorts take them to earlier and earlier timesto the days of the first steam engines, the days of Charles I, the Elizabethan age, and earlier, mediaeval times. Some wolves, travelling minstrels/players, would-be bandits, a Scots prince, and a mysterious relative all appear in the action as Richard and Cynthia with Timmy, and their avian escorts seek to free a princess from a fate worse than death at a sinister baron's castle.

Autorenporträt
David North was born in 1932 in Dewsbury, Yorkshire. He lived as a little boy some years in Estonia, but his parents moved back to England shortly before World War II broke out. He attended Manchester University where he took a Bachelor of Science degree in 1954. He has had quite a variety of work experience, but most of his working life was spent as a schoolmaster in Manchester and later in County Durham, and after immigrating to Australia in 1982, in Logan City, he married Mary Scott in 1954 and has four children-Deborah, Jeremy, Jason, and Davina-six grandchildren, and two great-grandchildren. Mary died of MS in 1982, whereupon his brother John invited him to come to Queensland, Australia. In 1985, he married Vasilou, who had three children (Nicky, Kelvin, and Irene), and he now lives in Logan City. David began and scribbling stories, poetry, and songs in the 1970s and '80s, but it was not until 2008 that he put any of them into bound book form. He likes books and chooks.
