Edwin Waugh's Besom Ben stories were rightly loved by Lancashire people in the mid-nineteenth century. Besom Ben and His Donkey was the first story in the series. This audio book featuring Ben, the simple besom manufacturer, and Dimple, his faithful and much put upon donkey, brings their first adventure back to life for a more modern audience.

The White House Inn, standing on the high ridge of Blackstone Edge is a famous hostelry on both the Yorkshire and Lancashire sides of the Pennine moors. Edwin Waugh transports us back to the days before railways displaced coaches and pack-horse trains and the stink and dirt of smoky factory chimnies despoiled the hill country of Lancashire and Yorkshire.
