About This Item
Berkeley, CA: Barn Owl Books, 1987. First Edition, 2nd Printing . Soft cover. Very Good/None as Issued. Ken Norgard (Photographer); Ellen Potcher (Map). Text/BRAND NEW. Soft cover/NF w/faint creasing to upper front corner. Pen mark to front cover verso & phone number to rear endpaper. Diary. Day-to-day account of running a South Dakota cattle ranch by rancher, poet, feminist and environmentalist Linda Hasselstrom. Given winters of below -56 degree when winds hold at 25 miles an hour; springs needing to check on pregnant cows at 10 PM, midnight, & 2 AM, plus April snow storms that can do-in the vegetable gardenb. Spring means getting up at ten p.m., midnight, and two a.m. to check on pregnant cows. Snow storms at the end of April can decimate a vegetable garden; and summers tossing hay ending in freezing, drying and canning while contantly on the look-out for prairie fires ...yet something makes for ranching in South Dakota. Perhaps a break in the wind? Hope in spring? Lovliness in summer? The warmth of winter in the house one has so laboriously prepared?
