Born and bred in the town, Susan grew up in a time when childhoods were spent roaming the fields freely &amp; safely.&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><p>Susan’s life has been anything but ordinary though; from nursing, teaching and becoming one of the very few female town criers in the UK, she’s a woman who’s never stayed in one lane. Along the way, she’s taken her big heart and big voice far beyond Montgomery, working overseas in places like Texas&nbsp;and Romania.&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Susan continues to pour her energy into community life, doing so with humour, warmth and that unmistakable and voice. This is a story of bells and songs, love and loss, freedom and fearlessness&nbsp;and a life lived very much in full colour.</p>","author_name":"Polly Lovegrove"}
