English Summary/英文概要： Now a Sunday Times Top 10 bestseller.
Amanda Owen has been seen by millions on ITV’s The Dales, living a life that has almost gone in today’s modern world, a life ruled by the seasons and her animals. She is a farmer’s wife and shepherdess, living alongside her husband Clive and seven children at Ravenseat, a 2000 acre sheep hill farm at the head of Swaledale in North Yorkshire. It’s a challenging life but one she loves.
In The Yorkshire Shepherdess she describes how the rebellious girl from Huddersfield, who always wanted to be a shepherdess, achieved her dreams. Full of amusing anecdotes and unforgettable characters, the book takes us from fitting in with the locals to fitting in motherhood, from the demands of the livestock to the demands of raising a large family in such a rural backwater. Amanda also evokes the peace of winter, when they can be cut off by snow without electricity or running water, the happiness of spring and the lambing season, and the backbreaking tasks of summertime - haymaking and sheepshearing - inspiring us all to look at the countryside and those who work there with new appreciation.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 本书现在是星期日泰晤士报畅销书后前十名。
阿曼达•欧文已经被英国独立电视台的节目” The Dales“的数百万观众所见证，她过着几乎在今天的现代世界消失的全新的生活，一种受季节和她的动物约束的生活。她是一个农夫的妻子和牧羊女，与她的丈夫克莱夫和七个孩子生活在Ravenseat，他们在北约克郡的斯韦尔代尔有2000英亩的羊山农场。这是一个具有挑战性的生活，但同时是她喜欢的生活。
在《约克郡的牧羊女》中，她讲述了来自哈德斯菲尔德的一直想成为牧羊女的反叛女孩如何实现了自己的梦想。书中充满了有趣的轶事和令人难忘的人物，带领我们从适应当地人到适应母性，从牲畜的需求到在这样一个闭塞的乡村抚养一个大家庭的需求。当他们没有电力或自来水，被雪隔绝时，阿曼达会召唤冬天的平和，春天的幸福和产羔季节，以及夏季的繁重任务——收割牧草和剪羊毛——这些激励我们审视农村和赞赏在那里工作的人们。(LNL)
