    About this ebook

    On Brassard’s Farm is a tale of personal struggle, sweeping transformation, and romantic love. Author Daniel Hecht tells of Ann Turner’s quest for a better life with unsparing honesty and gentle humor. Through its portrayal of the unrelenting labor and harsh pragmatism of farming, On Brassard’s Farm reveals the deep durability of rural life and offers a much-needed affirmation in a changing and uncertain world.

    “Former musician Daniel Hecht has brought a welcome artistry to his new field…He is a writer for those who demand texture, intriguing information, and a provocative thesis along with their thrills.”—Publishers Weekly (starred review), praise for the author

    “Daniel Hecht’s story made me fall in love…In his hands, love is gritty and exhausting and the only thing powerful enough to keep us on our feet. In times of darkness, a story like this gives light, and strength, and hope.”—Laurie R. King, New York Times bestselling author
