Soft cover. Condizione: Very Good. 1st Edition. A nice copy with is signed by the author. Small inscription. Some very minor light shelf wear. As former prime minister Jim Bolger writes about his friend of 40 years in the book's Foreword: "You don't have to be a romantic for the land and life distant from city and town lights to… find this book inspirational." The Way It Was is the down-to-earth, very readable story of Tom Brough - man of many parts. After a challenging childhood in the King Country backblocks and minimal schooling, Tom Brough became a Golden Shears Open Champion (shearing a million sheep along the way), King Country Farmer-of-the-Year (turning unproductive country into a model farm) and noted hunter (pigs and deer in New Zealand and more exotic animals in Finland, Namibia and Mongolia). A committed family man as well, three children and eight grandchildren are an important part of Tom and Larraine Brough's busy lives. Signed by Author(s).
