Stefán Bjarnason, a former farmer in Flaga, is now an elderly but healthy man. He was a village chief who held numerous positions of trust for his villagers. Stefán writes plainly and well, and in this language he explains his experiences, hopes and work during his 50-year farming career. The pages also show his family and numerous villagers and fellow travelers at work and at play. Sometimes the story travels beyond Skriðdalur down to Reyðarfjörður, south inland and to Sweden.
The book traces the development of a beautiful farm in the east of Hérad. Progress is timed and explained in what way it was made. It is also interesting to follow the author, his people and the countryside on these pages. It tells of people who create their own pleasures and benefits. Makes poems, plays and sings, takes care of sheep, cows and horses. It also tells of the introduction of technology into Icelandic agriculture. From turf farms to the computer age, it is therefore a farming symphony with uplifting effects.
