Poems


Book Description

Distringuished as both a great novelist and a great poet. Thomas Hardy (1840-1928) had a writing career which spanned more than sixty years, concentrating first on prose and then, after publishing his last novel in 1895, on verse. A master of the short lyric and the vivid narrative, Hardy is pre-eminently the poet of remembrance and tender regret for lost happiness; but he is also an ironist whose exquisite descriptions of rural life are the setting for bitingly sharp observations of human frailty.

Jumping Boundaries


Book Description

This book is meant to be useful to anyone who is interested in having and working with a large guardian dog. In these pages I hope I have answered many of the questions that surround large guardian dogs and what these great animals are possible of. It is my hope that the reader studies this book before purchasing their first large guardian pup. Training and maintaining a large guardian dog can be very time consuming early in the training stages, but the reward is well worth the peace of mind one will experience for the years that follow. One of the best lessons I have learned is that our large guardian dogs are forgiving of my shortcomings as a herd and dog owner. Often they know and understand more about what is going on than I do. These dogs are endlessly loyal and can be incredibly beneficial and meaningful to you, your family and your farm.
