Further Stories of the Minack Chronicles: A Drake at the Door, A Donkey in the Meadow, and Sun on the Lintel - Softcover
This delightful collection contains three of the most popular books in Derek Tangye's classic series about his idyllic life at Minack, the remote Cornish flower farm he shared with his wife Jeannie and a host of endearing animals. A Drake at the Door recounts the successes and failures of the early days of the farm and its lively menagerie; A Donkey in the Meadow follows the adventures of Penny's delectable foal Fred, whose huge ears and fluffy brown coat capture the hearts of all who meet him; and in the final story, Sun on the Lintel, Derek earnestly makes his New Year resolutions, before his beloved animals—Penny and Fred, the cats Oliver and Ambrose, Broadbent the gull, and a determined young badger—conspire to break them all. Full of the joy and simple pleasures of a life lived close to nature.
