About this title

Synopsis

Like many city dwellers, David Creaton dreamed of living off the land. But he never did anything about it until failing health landed him on a rambling English farm...complete with a workhorse that wouldn't pull a needle, let alone a haystack; a cranky hen that wouldn't let anyone in the outhouse, no matterhow urgent; a bull on the horns of a sexual dilemma; and an outrageous assortment of barnyard creatures with human foibles.Soon his romantic vision of rural existence gave way to the wisdom of the rugged realities of the seasons of mating and birth, and amidst the wonders of nature he met the local rat-catcher— a beautiful blonde—who captured his heart instead.
