The philosophy behind - 6 our secret Mantra” - A place away from home - a place
like home. “Let me live in a house by the side of the road and be a friend to
man”.
These words are taken from the poem. ‘The House by the Side of the Road” written
by the American poet Sam Walter Foss, Christopher Walton had studied this poem
at college and since then the word’s of the poet have inspired him to acts of
kindness.
These acts of kindness are passed on to his family
members, the society he are with and to guests visiting - making the world a
better place to live in.
From the hazel and recat of every day life, one walks into Walton’s - a
refreshing casis, of peace and Kanquility with a garden full of birds. A
plentiful supply of second land books at “Every man’s the Second Hand Bookshop
