This is a great memoir! Adele Crockett Robertson takes over the family farm after her father passes away. It is the early 1930's, during The Great Depression. Adele doesn't want the farm to be sold...she gets her brothers to agree to hold off on selling it until she tries to make a go of the Apple and Peach orchards. She works extremely hard, and gets a lot of help, and makes some friends too. Just she and her Great Dane Freya, live in the house and make do with what they have.
This is a heart-warming story...you find yourself cheering Adele on, as her apples sell and she is able to hold on to her family home.
