Book Description

Secondhand. Good condition. Wear to book corners and edges. Interior and binding are still excellent.

Making your living from the land in Australia is not for the faint-hearted. Isolation, hard physical work, long hours and the vagaries of drought, floods and fire make it a challenging environment for any farmer. But how do you cope when you are a woman in what is traditionally a man's world?

Women of the Land brings together the heart-warming stories of eight rural women across Australia who run their own farms, capturing their ways of life, personal struggles and remarkable achievements.

Often juggling the demands of raising a family, they have overcome tragedy, personal fears, physical exhaustion and more than a bit of scepticism to build vibrant futures that sustain them and their families.

Despite their diverse backgrounds, they all share several things in common - genuine humility, a passion for farming, and a deep, spiritual connection to the land that sustains them. This is the inspiring story of eight rural women and their remarkable everyday lives. (publisher blurb)
