First edition thus
First published in 1997, in a collection of short stories, this is a new edition, showcasing the grotesque drawings of Ralph Steadman.
A true story, it tells how an English plough man uncovered the greatest hoard of Roman silver ever discovered, but was cheated out of its true value, by his own innocence, the greed of his neighbor and the canniness of the English government.
