Bu e-kitap hakkında
Diane Allen's The Yorkshire Farm Girl is a heartfelt novel of a family dreaming of a better life when war looms on the horizon.
Life is hard for the Fothergill family as they try to make a living on their farm in the Yorkshire Dales. Bob Fothergill has set his sights on buying his own farm instead of renting the one they currently hold. Sally, his teenage daughter, wishes her father would see that she could help more with the farm, but he believes that a girl's place is in the home. Ben, their youngest, has no interest in farming – so is ignored. Sally's mother makes do, knowing her husband wants what's best for them.
But when Bob decides to take a well-paid job collecting milk it causes friction in the family. With Germany is shaking its angry fist at other nations, the threat of another war undermines everything. Times are hard and the future is uncertain, but perhaps the coming years could bring better times. Will the Fothergills survive the oncoming storm?
