Description
Life on an island in Puget Sound is a world apart from life in the city. For Betty MacDonald and her family, it was a choice made for twelve years, with no turning back. As November settles around their home, they reflect on their decision to leave behind the comforts of the big city. Betty MacDonald's second attempt at farm-living takes place on Washington's remote Vashon Island, where she shares the experience with her husband Don and teenage daughters. This memoir recounts their time on the island, a story of love, family, and the challenges of rural life. In Onions in the Stew, Betty MacDonald shares her final account of life on the island, a place that has become home to her and her loved ones.
