This book first published in 1891. In this brief,but very fascinating book,the author pens her thoughts on the challanges of leaving behind New York City and moving to the countyside to attempt poultry farming.
What makes the challages faced by Sanborn so uniquewas the fact that she an educated and upper-middle class woman who alreadymade a name for herself as a public intellectual.
Living in the countryside and managing a farm on your own was no joke back then and Sanborn had no idea what was instore for her when she rented an "abandoned" farm for three years as a single woman.
