Carol Drinkwater, whose three books--"The Olive Farm," "The Olive Season," and "The Olive Harvest"--sold more than a quarter of a million copies in the UK alone, has produced an entirely new volume documenting life on Appassionata, the farm she shares with her husband Michel. Many of the well-loved locations and a large cast of engaging characters make an appearance, and the local customs, hidden beaches, fairs, culinary pleasures, and off-the-beaten track charms of Provence all receive lovingly detailed attention. Carol's passion and joy will enchant armchair travelers and fans of her earlier works.
