Letters from the Ranch Nancy Lee Tegart

Nancy Lee Tegart is an independent woman who has never in her 90+ years allowed society to dictate how she should live. Born in England, Nancy moved to Edgewater in Southwestern British Columbia in 1927. She was allowed to leave school in the Depression years to help on her uncle's ranch. No matter where life has led her since then, her heart has remained firmly in the Columbia Valley with the horses that she loves.

Her faith in God and love of animals has sustained Nancy through good times and bad. Letters from the Ranch is a two-part book; the first part is a narrative of this remarkable woman's life co-written by Sharon Wass, the second half consists of Nancy's annual Christmas letters that she sent to friends and family over forty years.
