Pistorius, Alan CUTTING HILL
Alfred A. Knopf 1990 STATED FIRST EDITION Hard Cover Very Good Very Good
Chronicle of a Family Farm. The author re-creates for the reader life on the Treadway Dairy Farm, 350 acres in New England. Beautiful black and white illustrations. You will see how to feed, doctor, birth and milk cows; plant corn, chop silage, spread manure, go into the woods to work up the winter wood supply and to hang more than 1,300 sap buckets; into the "sugar-house" for the ceremonial lighting of the evaporator firebox that begins syrup-making. You are there for the endless tinkering with broken machinery, for the uncooperative weather, tax bills, all the troubles and joys of farming. You will learn how the farm "enterprise" works; how milk is "made" and transported, how silos and feed bunks function and are cared for; what equipment costs; what the farm can earn, what chores are necessary and all that makes a farm run. An excellent book to see how rewarding, yet difficult, farm life can be!
