Great Book

Excellent source of knowledge for anyone who lives in the country. Loads of information. Only con is that the print is very small.


Parts are great, parts are cheesy

Okay, I live the city and I get a kick out of this book. Will I use much of it? Probably not. But it's fun. Except some of this material is just thrown together and printed so small that no one is likely to call the authors on it.

What a wonderful reference!

This is such a wonderful little book! Well, it's hardly little, but given that you *really could* live off the land based on the information inside, it's awfully condense. It contains information on everything from homeopathic remedies for minor health ailments to very, ahem, thorough instructions on how to kill livestock to making a scratching post for your cat! I received this as a graduation present from my favorite old hippie in the whole wide world, and I will keep it forever. It has already served me well troubleshooting my vegetable garden's pests, and I am confident that it will be an invaluable resource when I finally do get some space in the country. This book is a MUST HAVE for anyone who is sustainability-minded or just simply laments that their city upbringing has left them a bit less mindful of the Way Things Work than they would like.

Everything You Would Ever Need to Know and Then Some~!

I Love this book though its sheer size is gigantic so it's a bit difficult to get on a standard size book shelf use it constantly as a reference for everything and everything planting preserving, Cooking, animal care crafts, building green houses to bird houses practical instructions I use every day out here on my 7 ac. Any thing and everything you would every wonder about out here and then some. I Excellent buy for a well used over and over reference book!



Great coffee table book

This is one of the best, most entertaining books that you'll ever own. It's packed full of interesting topics that you couldn't imagine being in print, let alone in one book.
Great bathroom, cabin and other illogical places.
I completely enjoy just picking it up and killing some time. Ever have to wait for someone?
