Everyman's Rules for Scientific Living: A Novel (Qty: 7)
Simon & Schuster. 07/10/2007. 240 pgs. Sewing instructor Jean Finnegan is one of the many experts onboard the Better-Farming Train that tours 1930s Australia bringing the latest scientific ideas and developments to the farming families of the country's rural regions. Soon enough, she's fallen in love with Robert Pettergree, a soil specialist who can tell what region of Australia he's in by simply touching the dirt to his tongue. The two marry and settle down, eager to bring the factual wisdom of Pettergree's methods of "scientific living" to their thoroughly modern life. This debut novel, written in clear and sparkling prose, imbues the quotidian with the miraculous, turning dirt and chickens into objects of wonder.
