REAL RURAL WIMMIN STORIES
by Jo Leath, Nova Scotia

Every village, farm and country town has a character of its own.
Every person living a rural life brings her own personality to the experience.
There is no limit to the number of stories that can be told.

These introductory stories written by Jo Leath were collected in and around Middleton, Nova Scotia, and versions of them originally appeared in the Down Memory Lane column of the Mirror-Examiner newspaper.
