Book excerpt: An affectionate look at contemporary English village life, from city-dwellers who decide to build their dream home "Maggie wants a house with lots of light. I need one with character. And what we do have in common doesn't help either--we're both stubborn." When Derek, a former TV journalist, and his partner Maggie decide to escape to the English countryside, they don't opt for the simple life. Instead they set about converting an old Cotswold stables in Stow-on-the-Wold into their dream home. Over the next two years, they wage guerrilla war on the Planning Office, are cursed by everything from collapsing walls to poison gas and dozy apprentices, run out of money, and meet some very strange characters--until in its final stages of construction, the place unaccountably floods. Along the way, Derek takes a quirky look at what makes villages work, or not, in the 21st century. Haunted by the words of a friend who accused him of romanticizing the rural, he investigates a dozen different villages. When it's over, Maggie and Derek survey The Old Stables with its 10 meters of shimmering glass and exposed oak beams, and Maggie asks, "Next time, why don't we try something bigger?"

Book excerpt: With a black and white interior, this book is a "MUST READ" for those who are planning to build a horse barn/farm, those who are just dreaming of someday building one, those on a limited budget, those on a limitless budget (because you will still have to give direction to your planners and architects to make sure you wind up with a functional barn/farm, and the one you wanted), those looking to buy an existing farm, those of you boarding, and anyone who rides or is thinking about riding (because the horse's housing and care will contribute to the horse's overall temperament and ability to perform).

Anecdotal stories and "lessons" (epiphanies) are included to emphasize points to help readers avoid making mistakes in their own barn/farm construction projects.
