Betty MacDonald 
Egg And I [EPUB ebook] 

When Betty Mac Donald married a marine and moved to a small chicken farm on the Olympic Peninsula in Washington State, she was largely unprepared for the rigors of life in the wild. With no running water, no electricity, a house in need of constant repair, and days that ran from four in the morning to nine at night, the Mac Donalds had barely a moment to put their feet up and relax. And then came the children. Yet through every trial and pitfall-through chaos and catastrophe-this indomitable family somehow, mercifully, never lost its sense of humor.A beloved literary treasure for more than half a century, Betty Mac Donald’s The Egg and I is a heartwarming and uproarious account of adventure and survival on an American frontier.-Print Ed.
