This is book is a cameo of Len Hobson’s memories of growing up in the 1930s, the early days of farming in the Karoo, his youthful exploits, his exposure to the poverty of the poor whites at that time and his grief at losing his sibling and later, two of his wives. More than all his achievements as a botanist, a brilliant horticulturist and a pioneer in the development of the sub-tropical fruit industry, Len Hobson is a humble soul who has never lost touch with the simple side of life. He is a down-toearth man of the soil, no pun intended.
