Summary
Initially self-published 20 years ago, The Encyclopedia of
Country Living has become the trusted guidebook to
sustainable, self-sufficient living. Filled with memorable
anecdotes, crucial advice, and a generous helping of good
humor, this compendium provides detailed information about
food production — growing, processing, cooking, and
preserving — together with hundreds of illustrations
and recipes. With updates of over 1,100 mail order sources,
including websites and email addresses, this revised edition
is the definitive classic text for living off the land.
“Carla Emery is certifiably one of the craziest,
warmest, ... funniest, wisest, most lovable, and idealistic
zanies now walking the earth.” — Mother Earth
