{"product_id":"books-a-year-in-the-life-of-the-yorkshire-shepherdess-by-amanda-owen","title":"A Year in the Life of the Yorkshire Shepherdess","description":"From bestselling author Amanda Owen come more tales of life at Ravenseat, the remote Yorkshire hill farm she shares with husband Clive, eight children and 900 sheep.  In A Year in the Life of the Yorkshire Shepherdess she describes the age-old cycles of a farming year and the constant challenges the family faces, from being cut off in winter to tending their flock on some of Yorkshire's highest, bleakest moors - land so inaccessible that in places it can only be reached on foot.   Writing with her trademark warmth and humour, Amanda takes us into her life as nine-year-old Miles gets his first flock, Reuben takes up the flugelhorn and she gives birth to a new baby girl. She is touched by the epic two-day journey of a mother sheep determined to find her lamb and gives a new home to an ageing and neglected horse. Meanwhile Clive is almost arrested on a midnight stakeout to catch a sheep-rustling dog and becomes the object of affection for a randy young bull. Funny, poignant and charming, A Year in the Life of the Yorkshire Shepherdess is a must for anyone interested in the countryside and those who farm it.","brand":"World of Books ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53670441124113,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9780283072413.jpg?v=1781511188","url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/products\/books-a-year-in-the-life-of-the-yorkshire-shepherdess-by-amanda-owen","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
