Hi - way back in the middle of the past century there was a book in U$A titled Five Acres and Independence which might have been inspired in part by the depression.

Anybody else heard of it?

Cheers, Mike in Toronto

the book was ok.. It doesn't deal within the natural world though.. 89% of people do not nor will the ever have 10 acres of land..
Does anyone know of books that teach folks to grow on less..Not Jeavons books either, because he is 5 acres..that can't be realized in this modern age.

I LOVED!!!! this book. I have reread it 4 times. I think it's profoundly
better than anything the Nearings ever wrote (similar vein) IMNSHO. I highly
recommend this book - I sound like I'm on reading rainbow or something but
it really is a super book.
