Welcome to Border Tales
In the oldest stories good ultimately triumphs over evil. Fables of witches and faeries taught us as much. Yet it’s a truth too often overlooked amidst our current difficulties.
With tales of foreign legionnaires rescuing damsels in distress, pirate radio disc jockeys braving the high seas and two girls vanquishing fear and exile as trail layers, Border Tales aims to celebrate the indomitable spirit of those who are truly great but may not know it.
Books on physical fitness and ancient spirituality help drive the search for the hero within. A plethora of articles and blog posts aim to build confidence, courage and good humour. This is a good world and getting better….
About the author
John Musgrave grew up in the north of England. After several years abroad – working construction in Germany, farming in Israel and soldiering in France – he returned to London, England and worked as a labourer, bouncer and barman before becoming a freelance journalist and PR agent. As an industrial editor he ran a national trade magazine.
His first book, a collection of short stories set in the Foreign Legion, Soldiers of the Heart, was published by Border Tales in 2019. Radio A-Go-Go, his first novel, is based on the pirate radio stations that formed a major part of many lives including his own. Set in County Durham and on the rolling deeps of the North Sea off Yorkshire, Radio A-Go-Go tells the story of the struggle to bring rock and roll to Britain. John lives quietly on the Welsh borders with his family.
