Them Feltwell Boys

David G Bailey was born in Lincolnshire and mainly schooled in the Isle of Ely, also studying in the Fens and the Black Forest. He has lived in the USA, Caribbean and South America as well as the UK. Currently based in the Midlands, he travels to write reports on insurance markets around the world. Researching and producing for publication reports the length of novels may have instilled more discipline in David's creative writing. In 2021 his first novel 'Seventeen' came out, an adventure fantasy story aimed at and beyond young adults. From 'Seventeen''s mainly masculine world of Pirates, Knights, Army and Westerners, 'Them Roper Girls returns to our own. With humour and compassion it traces in their own voices the lives of four sisters over more than sixty years from their 1950s childhood, as each tries to make her own way in the world against many challenges - as often from within the family as outside it!
