Synopsis Winter and Rough Weather by : D E Stevenson
Newlyweds Rhoda and James arrive at their new home, Boscath Farm House near the Scottish village of Mureth. James must adjust to the responsibility of running a sheep farm - and Rhoda, an accomplished artist used to the bright lights and bustle of London, to life in an isolated rural area where the winters are harsh and unforgiving. Encouraged by James, Rhoda continues to paint, in addition to taking a young boy under her wing and nurturing his artistic talent. But one of her portraits will stir up the embers of a long-buried secret, with unexpected consequences for the community...

Synopsis A Life in the Hills by : Katharine Stewart
Katharine Stewart, who died in 2013, was one of Scotland's best-loved writers on rural life in the Highlands. A Croft in the Hills, her first book, tells the story of how a couple and their young daughter, fresh from city life, took over a remote hill croft near Loch Ness and made a living from it. Full of warm personal insights, good humour and a love of living things, it has become a classic and has rarely been out of print since it was first published in 1960. This omnibus gathers A Croft in the Hills together with some of Katharine's later books: A Garden in the Hills, describing a year in the life of her Highland garden; A School in the Hills, a vivid history of the school at Abriachan which eventually became the Stewarts' family home; and The Post in the Hills, which tells the dramatic story of the postal service in the Highlands, from the point of view of Katharine's later role as postmistress of the smallest post office in Scotland, run from the porch of her Abriachan schoolhouse. Each of these books glows with what Neil Gunn described as 'its unusual quality, its brightness and its wisdom'. The omnibus will bring the grace, charm and wisdom of Katharine Stewart's writing to a new generation of readers.

He fought at the Battles of Belmont, Graspan, Twee- Reviere (Modder River), Magersfontein and several other skirmishes. After Bloemfontein was occupied, he teamed up with Braam Preller, his father-in-law, and adopted 'fight and flight' tactics. His home was burnt down and wife interned in the Kroonstad Concentration Camp, where his new-born daughter died. He was captured in April 1902 and banished as a prisoner of war to Umballa, India, where his experiences till Thursday 20th November 1902 were documented.
