The Young Farmer

By: Hirth, Gordon

THIS IS A LIVING, FIRST-HAND ACCOUNT, THE LIKE OF WHICH WILL NEVER BE SEEN AGAIN. A REFERENCE BOOK FOR FUTURE GENERATIONS.

The book is a brief history of the horse-and-buggy days on a small family farm in Victoria as experienced by the author from childhood in 1926 up to 1944.

The relentless struggle to survive during the stringent times of The Great Depression from the late 1920s to the mid-1930s, together with successive rainfall shortages, and the day-by-day anxiety of the WWII years, are never far from the author's mind.

The world has been shaken by unprecedented events, and the lives of those living on a small family farm were changed forever. For author, Gordon Hirth, growing up in Glen Cairn, would discover countless memories and experiences not soon forgotten.

"A tale of youthful experiences told by a well-versed new author who cares for his memories and shares them with humble and modest reality...a beautiful tale to be shared with lovers of history around the world..." Gayle, Indiebook Reviewer
