Andrew has managed to put into words a part of our South African farming that is difficult to describe unless you have experienced it yourself.

“Andrew, I finished your book last night and I was so sad when I turned the last page and finished the book – I wanted it to carry on. It was such a wonderful, delightful read. Perfect for bedtime reading because I could read a little at a time. I laughed so much at your stories, they were just delightful. You told them in such a way that it transports you to the very spot. It was really, really entertaining and so insightful of the auction business, which is misunderstood by so many.”

“Between the Bids – The life of an auctioneer, Andrew Miller, is ’n boek wat jy nie kan neersit as jy eers begin lees nie, en glo ek elke jong afslaer / bemarker moet hom lees. Andrew het die veilingsbedryf beleef in al sy fasette. A ‘must read’ for all who cherish this ‘calling of being the Colonel’. Andrew vereer almal wat deel was van sy ‘Journey’, en die boek is ’n bewys dat sukses gebou word op langtermyn vriendskappe en vertroue – The sound that sells!!”

“I found myself smiling and laughing at many of the stories because they are so familiar. They remind me of conversations around the table, stories told at an auction, on a farm or over a drink - stories that often get better every time they are told. Andrew has managed to put into words a part of our South African farming that is difficult to describe unless you have experienced it yourself. But it’s really about people - their humour, their resilience, their friendships, and their ability to enjoy the journey along the way. Thoroughly enjoyed it, Andrew! You brought back memories and reminded me of just how many remarkable characters make up our farming and business communities in South Africa.”
