classic must read for homesteaders
if you are planning to be self sufficient this is recommended reading. the overall information is concise and well written. some of the information may sound like it is a little dated. the other two books that i would recommend on raising animals would be "raising small livestock" by jerry belanger, and a book that was written in the 1940's telling how to raise livestock when meat was especially scarce iduring world war 2 called "victory barnyard". if you have these three books on raising small livestock, you have be able to at least provide meat, eggs, and milk for yourself. another book i would recommend would "eating cheap" by ragnar benson. most of the other books that i have read that came out in the 70's by city people trying to get back to the earth was full of information that just wasn't right.Read full review

Have-More Plan by Carolyn Robinson
A great introduction to becoming self sufficient and/or starting your own farm. Originally written a generation ago, it also gives a little insight to our society in the 30s, 40s, and 50s. The info given should be beneficial to anyone desiring to leave the hustle and bustle of the city, and get back to the basics (of country living). I found the prices quoted for supplies, livestock, etc. to be quite amusing and interesting-remember this was written in the post-depression era.

The Have More Plan
Truly the first pioneers in urban sustainable living the Robinson's tell their trails and errors of starting a place in the country and beginning to garden & keep livestock. Great info on how to get started as well as recommended reading for beginning homesteaders. I find it to be invaluable for anyone seeking a more sustainable lifestyle.
