Eileen Ramsay ; read by Carolyn Bonnyman

'When I'm the farmer,' began Mairi, and then she stopped, for she would never be the farmer. She was a girl. Growing up in rural Scotland, Mairi McGloughlin has always known she wants to be a farmer. But Mairi's a woman and as tradition dictates, it's her scholarly brother, Ian, who will someday inherit the family land. The next best thing for Mairi might be to marry a farmer. And charming, confident Jack could be the answer. But then there's Robin, her brother's best friend - more a man of books than of the land. But there's something about him. With the outbreak of World War I, everything changes and neither Mairi, Ian or Robin can hope to escape unscathed. As the world around them changes, only the land and love remain constant. But can it be enough to see them through?
