Beverley Forrester

The Farm At Black Hills (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This Kiwi rural memoir is an exhausting read - not just because Beverley Forrester's exceptional recall and research piles social history on top of personal revelations on top of stock husbandry on top of family fable on top of entrepreneurial nous, but because she has lived her achievement-packed 60-odd years at absolute full throttle. This remarkable woman - who worked as an occupational therapist, and now divides her life between running her Hurunui farm and a wool yarn business and fashion label - gives a perfect insight into the resilient spirit which first settled rual New Zealand.
