This book brings a sense of energy and perspective to the subject of farming, which is refreshing and ultimately uplifting" Irish Independent"As an investment banker turned farmer's wife, this is funny, educational, really interesting and exactly what I need." Aideen Fleming"I laughed most of the way through" Mary James MBE, Mendip Times"It is not simply a delightful page-turner, not is it only for those with a farming background. Despite the tongue-in-cheek title and chapter headings that suggest a light-hearted read, the book is eminently informative and revealing about the position of women in Irish society." Ciara Meehan, Head of History, University of Hertfordshire."Lorna's second book on the ups and downs of life as a farmer's wife is a delightful read, full of sharp observations on the realities of an agricultural life, mixed with a little social history, the odd recipe and some priceless tips on how to achieve the mythical status of the Perfect Farm Wife. I will be giving copies to several friends who I suspect secretly harbour an ambition of becoming the Perfect Farm Wife." Horse and Countryside"This book will also fulfil the role of an old friend, waiting quietly until she is needed for advice and reassurance, or is simply sought out for the pleasure of her company" Farming LifeWe have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
