Memoirs of a Country Girl

In this charring, often moving story, the author gives a very explicit snapshot account of her everyday life, spanning the '30s and '40s. Coming from a large family and living on a farm in the country, there was always a crisis and work to be done which may not be welcomed, but you just got on with it.
The innocence of those days and the development of her personality, often through self-doubt, drove her to make decisions which one day she may regret.
Brenda had a succession of boyfriends but had she chosen the right husband?
