Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - She turned a Montana ranch into one of America's first cashmere empires - starting from scratch, in her late forties. Ann Dooling was born into a hardworking Italian-American family in small-town Connecticut. She learned to ride, tend livestock, and sew before she was ten. She trained as a nurse. She walked away from a marriage that wasn't working. Then she rebuilt her life - again and again - until an unexpected passion changed everything: cashmere goats. Cashmere in America follows Ann from a goat farm in Australia to her own ranch in Montana. There, she became one of the only cashmere growers in the U.S. to take her fiber 'from goat to garment.' She set up four knitting machines in a spare bedroom. She trained her own knitters. She built Montana Knits into a respected name in American luxury fiber - one hand-finished garment at a time. This is a memoir about starting over. About a woman who kept rebuilding - in new states, new careers, new chapters - and found purpose every time. From a seasonal shop she opened in downtown Helena to the quiet strength she drew on caring for a husband decades later, Ann Dooling's story proves it's never too late to build something new. Why readers will love this book: ¿ A true, against-the-odds entrepreneurial story - one woman builds an entire American industry from a Montana ranch ¿ Rich, sensory storytelling that takes you from 1940s Connecticut to Australia to the Gobi Desert ¿ A hands-on, behind-the-scenes look at how a luxury fiber business is actually built, from breeding goats to designing knitwear patterns ¿ A moving meditation on resilience, legacy, and finding purpose at every stage of life ¿ Perfect for fans of rural memoirs, women's entrepreneurship stories, and true tales of reinvention later in life.…
