This book traces the history of Foster & Tetley Ltd, clothiers and outfitters, who traded in Goole, Yorkshire, from 1922 to 1982. As well as having a shop, the firm travelled the nearby villages supplying clothing to farming communities, mainly on credit, repaid in weekly instalments. They witnessed many social changes, serving two, sometimes three generations of the same families, sharing their joys and their sorrows as their children grew up to become customers themselves. The book has the following sections: The Early Days; The Stock; The Vehicles; The Village Rounds; From Church Street to Aire Street; The End. Appendices: Foster and Tetley staff; Customers on the 1963 Saturday round to Cowick, Snaith and Drax; Bruce Ward's list of acquaintances who have died.
