The Self Sufficient Life and How to Live It is the only book that teaches all the skills needed to live independently in harmony with the land harnessing natural forms of energy, raising crops and keeping livestock, preserving foodstuffs, making beer and wine, basketry, carpentry, weaving, and much more. Our 2003 edition included 150 new full-color illustrations and a special section in which John Seymour, the father of the back to basics movement, explains the philosophy of self-sufficiency and its power to transform lives and create communities. More relevant than ever in our high-tech world, The Self Sufficient Life and How to Live It is the ultimate practical guide for realists and dreamers alike.About the Author

Full of useful and helpful information, larger print that is easy to read. The format of this book makes the amount of information it contains feel less overwhelming as well. I appreciate the size of the book also, which is comparable to the size of an educational textbook. I am very happy with my purchase! I cannot wait to slow down and start doing more things mentioned in this book and provide for myself and others.
