For 50 years, Barbara McLean has tended a flock of sheep on her small Ontario farm. With a lyrical eye for detail, she moves through the seasons, detailing the crises, pleasures, and challenges of farm life. Now in her 70s, she faces a new problem: how much longer she can continue with the physically taxing work that is a central source of meaning and satisfaction. Shepherd's Sight shares a year at her farm, Lambsquarters. Through her unsentimental gaze, we witness the highs and heartbreaks of delivering and rearing lambs, the shearing and spinning of wool, the wildlife in the woods (and occasionally in the house), the garden produce moving from seed to harvest to table. Even after half a century on this land, McLean is still making fresh observations and she shares them in evocative, elegant prose. As she moves through the calendar year, she also reflects on years past, offering a long view on climate, stewardship, and agriculture. With its vivid description and absorbing storytelling, Shepherd's Sight offers an unforgettable glimpse of a life lived on the land.
