An inspiring account of one woman's quest for fulfillment, for readers of Eat, Pray, Love.

"Superb." —Martha Stewart

Margaret Roach worked at Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia for over twenty years and made a name for herself through her gardening work with her hugely popular gardening blog, "A Way to Garden." But despite the financial and professional rewards of her job, Margaret felt unfulfilled. So she moved to her weekend house upstate in an effort to lead a more authentic life by connecting with her garden and with nature.

And I Shall Have Some Peace is a funny, quirky, humble memoir that allows readers to live out the fantasy of quitting the rat race and getting away from it all.

Genre:

Margaret Roach is the author of the memoir And I Shall Have Some Peace There. She has been an editor at the New York Times, fashion editor and garden editor at Newsday, the first garden editor for Martha Stewart Living magazine, and the editorial director of Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia.

Margaret is now a consultant and avid gardener, keeping fans up to date on her website A Way to Garden, which Anne Raver of the New York Times called "the best garden blog" she'd seen. Margaret is also the author of A Way to Garden, named Best Garden Book of the Year by the Garden Writers' Association of America.
