Grace Billings's married life started on her husband's family farm in the green hills of western Connecticut. Unfamiliar with the countryside but curious and bright, she worked to learn the rules of farm life and to follow them. Before long, she began to love the land and what it offered. SEASONS OF THE GREEN MEADOWS is an exquisitely written and insightful memoir about Grace's nearly two decades on the farm. She tells us how and why the family came to own the property, and of the strong characters that lived on it. She details the many traditions that sprung from the annual cycles of nature and from her strong religious feelings. She recounts how she became a vital and involved member of the local community, and she shares tales of its trials and changes. And-inevitably-she invites us to witness her struggles to become a writer.
