Kings Mountain “Hysterical” Museum is excited to host former columnist Kathryn Hamrick for a program on her new book, The Farmer’s Wife. The book is based on Hamrick’s humorous weekly column in the Shelby Star, which ran from 1983-2004. In her columns, she shared the witty and comical real-life stories of her adjustment from being a city girl to being a rural dairy farmer’s wife. Behind the laughter, Hamrick helps readers better understand what life is like for a farm family in Cleveland County, illuminating the challenges and joy that lifestyle has brought to generations.
