CHRISTMAS AT COLD COMFORT FARM

A charming collection of stories for the festive season from the author of Cold Comfort Farm, with an introduction by Alexander McCall Smith. The title story tells of a typical Christmas at the farm before the coming of Flora Poste. Adam Lambsbreath dresses up as Father Christmas in two of Judith's red shawls; there are unsuitable presents, unpleasant insertions into the pudding, and Aunt Ada Doom orders Amos to carve the turkey, adding: 'Ay, would it were a vulture, 'twere more fitting!'
