Chris Stewart was the original drummer with Genesis, and is now a farmer and an author.
He is better known for his autobiographical books, Driving Over Lemons (1999, ISBN 0953522709) and the sequel A Parrot In The Pepper Tree (ISBN 095352275X), about his work farming in Spain. Both are also available as audio books (Lemons ISBN 0141801433; Parrot ISBN 0141804025), narrated by Stewart.
"An idyllic life in a remote, sunny part of Europe is a fantasy normally punctured by harsh realities, and abandoned. Chris is made of sterner stuff. Driving Over Lemons is a wonderful account of his Andalucian adventure"
