Amanda Owen invites readers into the extraordinary world of shepherding at Ravenseat, one of the most remote hill farms in the Yorkshire Dales. With warmth and wit, she shares the reality of raising nine children whilst tending to hundreds of sheep in the unforgiving yet breathtaking landscape of the Pennines.
From lambing in blizzards to hay-making in rare summer sunshine, Owen captures the ancient rhythms of farming life with unflinching honesty and infectious enthusiasm. Her tales of resourcefulness, resilience, and the occasional disaster paint a vivid picture of a way of life that's both brutally demanding and deeply rewarding.
This is an authentic celebration of rural Britain, offering an intimate glimpse into a farming tradition that connects past and present through the changing seasons.
