    Soft cover. Condition: Very Good ++. B/W Photographs (illustrator). Second Printing. Nancy Christensen was in the music program, an occasional dope-smoker, and a member of the U.I.C. ski-team when in 1975 she decided to sign on as cook w/ the Douglas Lake Cattle Company near Merritt, British Columbia. These 297 pages tell her story. There was an ever changing stream of rather macho men who passed through her cookhouse. She had a few pets and a favourite horse or two. She learned to appreciate the wide-open ranch spaces. She fell in love and suffered pain. Camera crews and artists came to document ranch life. The text is complemented by b/w photos of ALL these. Signed (and dedicated) by the author on title page - `enjoy the rest of the story'. Cond : Paper wrapper is a composite wrap-around photo of the author in 2 ranch settings - one with her guitar. Very minor wear, corners and edges SHARP, colours bright, binding tight. No names, marks, tears, folds nor stains. GIFTABLE !! Quote (p. 58) : " ._._.layer of ice on them which would have to be smashed before I coud even begin to make the coffee. Sometimes the eggs would be frozen too, back in the little storage room behind my bedroom. When that happened , I would just peel off the shells as though ._._._. ." Size: 8vo. Signed by Author(s).
