Ramblings of an Old Farmer
By Johann Fuchs
()
About this ebook
These are the ramblings of an old farmer, William Pembrooke, as he looks back on his family's farm, Pembrooke/German Farm and Dairy. The story looks at how John and Ida Pembrooke got the farm and how it grew over the next hundred-plus years until William and finally his granddaughter would run the farm. It tells the family stories, some sad and others humorous.
