An agricultural treasure.

El carro me recuerda a mi padre. Me contaba, que su segundo trabajo era el de transportar mercancía a Madrid, y lo hacía con su carro tirado por mulas. El carro es un emblema de lo que ha sido el trabajo agrícola durante años, en las familias del campo. Todo se hacía con esfuerzo, a pie, con la fuerza de los animales. El carro es un ídolo, un dios, en ese  altar de los recuerdos del pueblo. Los perros, las mulas, los bueyes, tantos animales, que hoy ya no tienen la importancia que tenían en mi infancia… Quiero hacer honor también a la rueda prehistórica, el invento matriz de nuestra historia. Sin ella nada de lo que vivimos hoy hubiera sido posible. Gracias a ese impulso de la rueda y el carro y las mulas y los caballos y los bueyes… Así nacieron las rutas, los caminos reales, la caminería…

About Daniel Kemp

Daniel Kemp is a seventy-four-year-old member of The Society of Authors. He is also a bestselling writer. He writes stories that appeal to those who like challenging themselves to solve mysteries that are set out before their eyes. His introduction to the world of espionage and mystery happened at an early age when his father was employed by the War Office in Whitehall, London, at the end of WWII. However, it wasn’t until after his father died that he showed any interest in anything other than himself! On leaving academia he took on many roles in his working life: a London police officer, mini-cab business owner, pub tenant and licensed London taxi driver, but never did he plan to become a writer. Nevertheless, after a road traffic incident left him suffering from PTSD and effectively—out of paid work for four years, he wrote and self-published his first novel —The Desolate Garden. Within three months of publication, that book was under a paid option to become a $30 million film. The option lasted for six years until distribution became an insurmountable problem for the production company. All ten of his novels are now published by Next Chapter Publishing Company which has added an edition titled The Heirs And Descendants Collection, which holds all four books of that series, alongside an edition titled The Lies And Consequences Collection which contains all four volumes of that series. He is the recipient of rave reviews from a prestigious Manhattan publication and described as—the new Graham Green—by a highly placed executive of Waterstones Books, for whom he did a countrywide tour of book signing events. He has also appeared on 'live' television in the UK publicising his first novel. He likes to write quotes and it's on Goodreads where you can find them--- https://www.goodreads.com/quotes/list/72612151 An example of these quotes opens his novel--Once I Was A Soldier:--There is no morality to be found in evil. But to recognise that which is truly evil one must forget the rules of morality. Less
