Excellent seller -- good communication, item exactly as described, reasonably priced, well packed. Seller shipped immediately but the book took over half a month to arrive, due to the carrier used on the first leg, to get the package to USPS.

  • The Orchard: A Memoir

    My daughter recommended the book to me 2 years ago. The book was not in our public library system. I bought the book and loved the true story. I bought 4 more copies of the book to share with members of our book club. They loved the story also. I have since bought 2 more copies to share with a literary group I belong to. Adele Crocket Robertson was a remarkable woman. She endured all kinds of hardship in her effort to keep the family home and orchards from being taken by the bank during the days of the Depression. She undertook the monumental task without the help of her brothers after their father died. She left a safe, white collar job that her Ratcliffe education had secured to return to the farm.

  • The Orchard by Adele C. Robertson

    This book is abiut a women inheiting a apple orchard from her father. Everyone said it would be impossible to bring it back to producing again, but she put her heart and blood sweat into it and proved everyone wrong. She accomplished the impposible. It is a very well written and I enjoyed it very much.

  • Excellent
