Terry Darlington was brought up in Pembroke Dock, Wales, during the
war, between a flying-boat base and an oil terminal. He survived
and moved to Staffordshire, where he founded Research Associates,
an international market research firm, and Stone Master
Marathoners, a running club. Like many Welshmen, he is talkative
and confiding, ill at ease with practical matters, and liable to
linger in pubs. He likes boating but knows nothing about it.
Following the publication of Narrow Dog to Carcassonne,
Terry, his wife Monica, and their whippet Jim planned to sail the
Phyllis May down the Intracoastal Waterway from Virginia to
Florida—an adventure which, should they survive it, will be the
subject of their next book, Narrow Dog to Indian River,
coming from Delta in 2009.
"Written with the author's glorious sense of humor, this is one of
those journeys you never want to end."—Good Book Guide, UK
“A rich and winning comic debut, destined to become a
classic.”—Daily Telegraph, UK
“One of the most hilarious travel memoirs ever written!”—Booklist
