Jack's World: Farming on the Sheep's Head Peninsula, 1920-2003
Description:
This is the story of the life and times of a West Cork farmer, Jack Sheehan who lived all his 80 years on the same farm. He recounts growing up and struggling to survive in the 1920s and 1930s, managing his farm through the 1950s and adjusting to new forces in the 1970s. It illustrates how the traditional farm has changed from a valued family inheritance to the commodity of consumerism and property speculators today. The book draws on unique source materials, including Jack's diaries, and is illustrated with original color photographs.
