Millions of wives wish they knew the answer. It was clearly time that some sort of enquiry was made into the strange rituals of the cult, and its secrets exposed to the public gaze. After years of crawling through wet grass and conducting lonely vigils in distant torrents, Thelwell has at last presented his report." . Seller Inventory # 29369
