Dwellers in Arcady

This delightful work tells the story of the author Albert Paine and his family moving into an old farmhouse in rural Connecticut. He writes in a lively, witty, and friendly style, making some sharp observations on the ways of bees, cows, and chickens. In addition, he writes a lot about his family, especially his youngest daughter, who runs about the yard fondly, believing herself to be a horse. It's an easy read to sit back and enjoy.
