Description: Meaney Freeney is a bachelor farmer with simple needs and a healthy bank balance. His take on life could be summed up by his drinking habits -- why buy a pint of Guinness when half-pint, sipped slowly, give twice the value? Trouble brews when an old flame arrives back in town. Her sparkle lights up his lonely world, but if he and the free-spending Julie are ever to marry, Meany must loosen his iron grip on the purse strings. Will he do it and how far would he go for love? -- Back cover.
