<p><em>Conisbrough Tales</em> is a modern version of Chaucer's <em>Canterbury Tales</em> being a collection of stories about my home town Conisbrough in verse. I am sure that Geoffrey Chaucer's dog could write better poetry than me but I think (hope) that there are a few felicitous moments where the doggerel rises to the level of verse (and at rare moments perhaps even poetry). Whatever the quality of the writing I believe that those who know and love Conisbrough as I do will enjoy reading these stories.</p>
