Rien's Farm Book
The Farm Book is done wonderfully with great art. It will remind many people that have left the Netherlands and now live overseas, of the many small details of Dutch Farm life.

Not as good as Rien's other books
I didn't really enjoy this book as some of Rien's other work. Don't get me wrong, it's still wonderful artwork, and a bargain at the price here. If you are like me and have to have ALL his books, by all means, get it. But if you are trying to choose between this one and some of his others, like Dogs or Life in Holland, pass on this book.

Rien's Farm Book,
By Ineke van Noorel (Casper, Wyoming) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Farm Book (Hardcover)
The Farm Book is done wonderfully with great art. It will remind many people that have left the Netherlands and now live overseas, of the many small details of Dutch Farm life. The expressions on the faces of the typical Dutch farmers are rendered as only Rien could do it. Farms, animals, vegetation, it all is portrayed the way we used to see it around us, when living in that small country. Old farm tools can be seen as well. There is a variety of things all related to the old fashioned farm, and of course his text is humorous. This book is great!!!

The Best,
This review is from: Farm Book (Hardcover)
Speaking as a veterinarian, the combination of James Herriot's chronicles and the Farm Book gives one an accccurate and vivid portrayal of rural life.

This book takes you to another time and place. It is hard to put it down. The artist beautifully expresses his love for farm life and the inhabitants. Not to be missed if you love animals.
