This book has really hit me hard. I am pretty slow, so I'll be mentally & emotionally digesting this for a while. Chewing on my cud, so to speak. My initial reaction is that if you read a book that inspires you to begin farming, BEFORE you sell your house & all your belongings & pack everything into a yellow truck & begin your farm dream, READ THIS BOOK. I will caution you that this is not a neat & tidy book that you can read to your little ones. Unless you consider skinny-dipping, and some of the other hippie-style social interactions okay. I won't be reading this to my kids. But I'm glad I read it.
