If you read Backwoods Home Magazine, you'll know about this lady from the forums. I figure s ome lurking females on the board might find the book interesting. Annie Dodds' book "A Widow's Walk Off-Grid to Self-Reliance." The Kindle version is regularly $8.95 but you can order it now for only $4.99 here: http://amzn.to/1urbBWU The book reads like you're sitting across the kitchen table having coffee as she tells her tale of losing everything and moving to an old, rundown home with no electricity, no running water, no kitchen or bathroom, and little else, where she overcame some incredible hardships, conquered her demons, and built a new life for herself. If you ever had doubts about what a determined woman can accomplish under arduous, challenging circumstances, Annie's story will lay them to rest. If you prefer the paperback version, you can order it in the BHM Bookstore here: A Widows Walk Off-Grid to Self-reliance #TH32 or from Amazon here: http://amzn.to/1kLgrxT
