Leellen review: Self-sufficient Life and How to Live It

I built the compost bins per the specifications in the book but won't know for a while how that works out. It's a good guide for doing a lot of the things that I've been thinking about but not practicing for years. Living in LA, it's hard to imagine doing much of what is offered in the book but as a novice, as I build my garden and develop my little piece of the planet, this book is my first stop.


Review of Self-Sufficient Life

Well written and useful information in the event of a social collapse. Well done!

We Should All Be 1/4th John Semour

The book is everything you could wish to know from beginning to end. The ONLY criticism I have with the book is that is seems to be for one specific climate in England. I'm not quite sure how to translate a lot of it over to a New England (USA)Winter setting. Regardless of that, it's a miracle to have such a book in this day and age.

Great Homesteading Reference

This book offers all a homesteader or potential homesteader needs to know to get started. Given from a British perspective many of the techniques mentioned may not be legal or practical everywhere. Despite this, I found this to be a thorough guide that covered many aspects of homesteading that I myself had not thought of. Basket and cloth weaving, beekeeping, raising and butchering animals, fishponds for food and food preservation techniques, it's all here and more. At times it is slow reading as being of the same mind as many readers, I found myself looking more for the fantasy of what being a homesteader is like rather than the reality. This is a complete guide on how to be a farmer! I only regret that Mr. Seymour is no longer with us and that we no longer have the benefit of such wisdom.
