Rooikoppies: A Memoir

How did a little girl, born on a farm in the Free State, South Africa, become university-educated, a gracious hostess, master chef, committed community volunteer, devoted, loved and respected friend, wife, mother, grandmother and great grandmother? Not without struggle, tragic loss, determination and good humour. Ariella Damelin teaches life-writing. She has four children and four grandchildren and lives in Toronto with her husband.
