The mountains, my life full of work and longing

The son of a family of mountain farmers in the Lechtal Alps experiences the hard and modest life of the old days on his parents' farm, where he is required to work very early on in his childhood. The development of the village with electricity and an access road ushered in a rapid development that changed many things.
Josef Friedl tells of profound feelings, of the threat posed by the forces of nature, of special mountain experiences and a wide variety of events from old and new eras. Insights resulting from his own life experience complete a restless autobiography.
