Biografía del autor:
Victoria Osborne is a true born-again peasant. She has worked at a wide variety of jobs over the years, including riding teacher; deck hand on a traditional three-masted schooner; school registrar; curtain-maker; business manager; and specialist antique dealer. She has now turned her hand to telling others about the skills she has picked up over the years. Victoria has experimented with self sufficiency, living on a smallholding in Wiltshire where she has kept chickens, bees, rabbits, quail, sheep, pigs, horses and, most recently, a working donkey. She grows her own vegetables, cures and smokes her own bacon and ham, joints her own venison, and makes bread both for sale and for her family’s consumption. She has made wine, baskets, soap, preserves, and built a replica Iron Age roundhouse, as well as a coracle. Victoria has most recently been a research student at a West Country university, studying for a PhD in Artisan cheesemakers, only giving this up when the natural curiosity of the peasant finally took over!
