Wind, Water, Barley & Wine
Wind, Water, Barley & Wine tells you what’s under your feet and all around you in The County! The natural elements of water, wind and rocks determine where we live, what we grow, where we work and how we play. This exciting new hardcover book reaches back to the earliest formations of the Earth to draw a close connection between the people of Prince Edward County and the precious peninsula they inhabit. Lavishly illustrated with colour photos, maps and charts, Wind, Water, Barley & Wine brings you closer to the natural heartbeat of The County.
