Four Leaf Clovers Publisher: Roberta MacDonald | ISBN: 9780961924508 | edition 2008 | PDF | 9 pages | 1,97 mb This book was written by Roberta MacDonald, senior vice president of marketing for Cabot Creamery Cooperative on the simple joy and pleasure of searching for four-leaf clovers. Written in 1988, reprinted in 2003 and again in 2007, MacDonald’s book is a lighthearted yet techinical look at how to search for four-leaf clovers. More importantly, it’s a guide to introspection and contemplation — two things seemingly lacking today due to life’s everyday demands and distractions. Although ostensibly about how to search for four-leaf clovers, this guide quietly offers subtle instruction in another search: how to relax and sample what’s really meaningful in life. Roberta MacDonald has written a pleasantly whimsical tract about the art of contemplation. Her advice is specific, and its implications are as much philosophical as horticultural.
