The author, an army veteran, decides to leave behind the tedium of military life and purchase a small farm, which he intends to make his new home. However, the author quickly discovers that running a farm is not as straightforward as he had anticipated. Aside from the difficulties of farming itself, the author has to contend with a host of unusual characters including a pair of bizarre elderly women who seem to have taken a particular dislike to him, and a malicious neighboring landowner who appears determined to make the author's life a misery. Despite the setbacks and challenges he faces, the author remains determined to make a success of his new venture. He is gradually won over by the simple pleasures of country living and forms an unexpected bond with the local community. This book is a charming and often humorous account of one man's journey towards a new life and a celebration of the resilience of the human spirit in the face of adversity.
