About This Item
New York, NY, U.S.A.: Little, Brown & Company - Back Bay Books, 1999. Second Printing . Trade Paperback. Very Good. 5 1/4" x 8. 342 pages. Clean straight book with no marks or stamps. The author was a romantic 17 year-old when she married a South American aritsocrat 20 years her senior. Seduced by tales of his ancestral home, she left England for his family's vast plantation deep in the Venezuelan Andes. At first, Lisa found herself virtually abandoned in the wilderness, with only a pet vulture, two pedigreed beagles, and-la gente-the estate's illiterate, feudal people-for company. The Hacienda tells the sometimes hilarious, sometimes harrowing story of how Lisa courageously restored the plantation, bore her first child, and, perhaps the hardest of all, won the respect of la gente.She discovered an untapped reservoir of personal strength and, in the end, was forced to use it to save her own life.
