"This is the best money I've ever spent on a book." "An absolute essential for your library even if you are an urban dweller." "A must-have for anyone who is new to country living or just interested in it." "Great book with enough detail to do most things and get you started on anything else.", ". . . a comprehensive reference guide with information about keeping animals, growing a garden, and even making furniture." --J. Klemann "Very helpful and educational." --D. Pitsko "Love this manual. It covers all the basics. It's well written and has lots of pictures." --J. Harvey "This book is the quintessential country life guide. It has almost anything you could need to know about living more naturally, raising farm animals, and even plenty of helpful how-tos about fixing or installing household standards. I'd recommend this book to city dwellers and farm folk!" --H. Baker "Over the years I've purchased a library of DIY books. Many of the encyclopedic type books are too general and a paucity of information, until now. This is an exceptional volume of work, surprising detail with fabulous color photographs." --K. Broman
