I found much to learn in this book, and was highly entertained along the way by the author's often hilarious stories of life on her farm with her husband, kids, and livestock. (  )madamejeanie | Sep 17, 2008 |   Full of useful information (I bought it for the stuff on growing and preserving vegetables). A bit too much God in it for my taste, but that's the way many Americans see the world, so I suppose I shouldn't be too surprised. (  )mandahill | Mar 22, 2008 | From cactus to basic farm animals, don't move to the country without this resource! Back in our 'back to the land' youth, we lived out of this thing! ( )cookebooks | Jan 5, 2008 | This big fat book has homesteading and farming information. Useful information to be found even for those not operating a small farm. kaykwilts | Oct 8, 2005 | 0.050 seconds to build listing  no reviews | add a review
