About this ebook

The story of one woman’s life in rural mid Wales at the turn of the 20th c. Despite poverty and setbacks, she climbs the ladder to become Cook at Gregynog Hall - a real achievement. Marriage and widowhood see her succumb to the fate of many women at that time who had little or no control over their own lives. Although she slid into relative obscurity, she possessed great courage.
