The Tinkler-Gypsies is a novel written by Andrew McCormick and published in 1907. The story revolves around the lives of a group of gypsies who travel around the countryside, tinkering and repairing various items. The main character, Tinkler, is a skilled craftsman who is highly respected by his fellow gypsies. However, his life takes a dramatic turn when he falls in love with a wealthy woman named Ethel.As Tinkler and Ethel's relationship develops, they face numerous challenges and obstacles, including disapproval from Ethel's family and the social divide between their respective backgrounds. Meanwhile, Tinkler's gypsy community is also facing its own struggles as they come under increased scrutiny and persecution from the authorities.Throughout the novel, McCormick explores themes of love, class, and prejudice, as well as the clash between traditional and modern ways of life. The Tinkler-Gypsies is a captivating and thought-provoking work of fiction that offers a unique insight into the lives of a marginalized community in early 20th century England.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
