 Caravans and Wedding Bands: Memories of A Romany Life by Eva Petulengro   288 pages

The story begins with Eva Petulengro's life after marriage.    It covers her life extensively through the 1960s and how her fame as a tarot card reader, palm reader and clairvoyant soared.   She talks about doing readings for several celebrity and royal clients.   She talks about having kids and moving homes (still that wandering Romany spirit), she talks about family and friends and man did those folks drink!  But life was nearly always a dream except when cheeky journalists or t.v. shows tried to trick on to their shows to make her look like a fake.   Her fortune telling was spot on and she is still on many folks speed day today.  Fun recalling of Romany memories growing up and growing older in the Gypsy life.   I recommend this one to teens on up.
