Chris Stewart has been a sheep shearer and a drummer for Genesis, and decided he wanted to relocate to the Sierra Nevada. His book chronicles his adventures – the terrain and the locals – doing up his ramshackle house. Ada, his wife, is the voice of certainty, and no nonsense and as a couple they provide the perfect counterbalance in this witty and insightful account.
