Publisher's Synopsis
Home Life On An Ostrich Farm is a book written by Annie Martin and published in 1890. The book is a memoir of Martin's experiences living on an ostrich farm in South Africa with her husband and children. Martin details the daily routines and challenges of running the farm, including the breeding and care of ostriches, as well as the social customs and traditions of the local community. The book provides a fascinating insight into the life of an ostrich farmer in the late 19th century, and the unique challenges and rewards of living in a remote and isolated environment. Martin's writing is engaging and descriptive, painting a vivid picture of the sights, sounds, and smells of life on the farm. Home Life On An Ostrich Farm is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of South Africa, the farming industry, or the lives of women in the 19th century. It is a charming and informative book that offers a glimpse into a bygone era, and a way of life that has long since disappeared.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
