Sinopsis
Excerpt from Farm Echoes
Much of my boyhood was spent in boating, and I have always had a fondness for such amusement. If, therefore, my pen occasionally jumps the track, and makes a sud den dash for old Ocean, the reader must pardon the digression.

Excerpt from Farm Echoes
In a young and extended country like this, where new avenues to wealth are continually being opened up, it is not to be wondered at that comparatively few of its men of business work moderately. The high pressure at which others are driving their commercial affairs irresistibly impels us to put on more steam than we should otherwise do. The race in many a business career is not unlike the steamer races against both time and each other.
In common with many other men of business, I made the grave mistake of working so assiduously at my office duties as to disregard frequent admonitions that my health was thus being impaired. I vainly hoped that the incessant strain would soon so far cease as to make it safe for me to continue to labor on without rest. Such hoping against hope is a sad delusion. Could those thus circumstanced realize their position, they would speedily seek relief; but who that is thus engaged in an extensive and increasing business can calmly or rightly comprehend his condition? He must retire from it for a season in order to get a correct view of it.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book is an autobiography of a man who left Philadelphia life to run a farm in New England. In his memoir, the author recounts his hilarious mishaps, the friendships he formed, and the rich history of his adopted town. Despite being a city man, the author brings his business acumen and self-reliance to his farming life, and his experiences using dynamite to clear his land demonstrate his willingness to learn and adapt. Through his reflections on the differences between city life and country life, the author reminds us of the importance of both hard work and leisure, and of the many forms that both can take. His work is a testament to the idea that the pursuit of self-sufficiency can be as rewarding as the fruits of one's labor. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Nº de ref. del artículo: 9781331609162_0
