From a chance meeting as a youth with poachers who taught him the art of ‘long-netting' at night, to escapades including being chased by gamekeepers and farmers, Steve invites you to join his extraordinary journey through life. Steve Caple's new memoir follows the author's lifetime from being a solitary child roaming the wild and desolate places on the outskirts of a tiny village, Duston in Northamptonshire, to becoming the owner of his own successful pest control company. It describes the chance meeting with poachers who taught him the art of ‘long-netting' at night, and conveys his love of the countryside and describes in detail his many working dogs.
