This is an account of twenty years in Greece in the life of a British woman; of her love for the owner of a derelict farm and their efforts to restore it, ably yet spasmodically assisted by a succession of itinerant young foreigners; of how, to the horror and secret admiration of their neighbours, she learned to prune their thousand apricot trees and their five hundred citrus; of how she ploughed the fields and how her animals were exceptional.
