Posted - Aug 19 2005 : 8:23:35 PM Julia! Yes, I have "Fresh from the Country"!!!! Got it a few months ago at my used book store! Haven't read it yet... My copy is the 1960 first American edition I found for 1.00. This book just kind of leaped off the shelves into my hands! What books of Miss Read have you "read"? This is so cool!
