A review by oldpondnewfrog
The Farm in the Green Mountains by Alice Herdan-Zuckmayer

adventurous inspiring medium-paced

4.0

Characteristically short paragraphs, often only a line or two long, describing her life as an immigrant on a farm near Barnard, VT, about seventy-five miles north of me.

Fascinating to hear what life, what winters, were like only seventy years ago.

The party line.

Visits to the university library at Dartmouth.

The war against the rats. Animal caretaking.

Stoic Vermont neighbors.

Expansive mood, of starting over and facing many challenges.
