From Goodreads
Amanda Owen has been seen by millions on ITV's The Dales, living a life that has almost gone in today's modern world, a life ruled by the seasons and her animals. She is a farmer's wife and shepherdess, living alongside her husband Clive and seven children at Ravenseat, a 2000 acre sheep hill farm at the head of Swaledale in North Yorkshire. In 'The Yorkshire Shepherdess' she describes how the rebellious girl from Huddersfield, who always wanted to be a shepherdess, achieved her dreams.
My thoughts
This is an account of the life of Amanda Owen, a real life shepherdess who has featured on The Dales on ITV.
Reasonably well written this autobiography is a great insight into the highs and lows of working on a remote farm in the Yorkshire countryside.
It's worth a read and I will be reading the next one that she has written in due course.
