Subtitled, From the yard to the pantry and the table, this book is about the pure inspiration and endless appeal of the rural life. With plenty of full-page pictures of the people, places, produce, livestock and dishes that country life is all about, it will warm the hearts of many who harbour some deep longing to quit the hurly-burly urban experience for something closer to nature. Yet as appealing as it is, it's still a somewhat sanitised, romantic look at the rural idyll. But so delightful and alluring. Maybe if you can't have a farm of your own and escape to country is an occasional weekend thing at best, this one will help sooth the harried nerves of urbanites wishing for a more natural way of life.
