The Essential Agrarian Reader: The Future of Culture, Community, and the Land
Overall, this was a wonderful read. It was nice to read a little bit from so many prolific minds in agrarianism that I hadn't read before. Wes Jackson, Gene Logsdon, and of course, the great Wendell Berry. The book was well divided, yet, within the sections, I thought a couple of the essays/writings were a little irrelevant in that particular section, thus making it seem kind of like quirky fit in the context of that section.
By reading this, I was able to read further into the economics and philosophy of agrarianism and that has helped me learn more about the theme and lifestyle to which I grant more appreciation and drive to dive into it myself.
Overall a great read to immerse oneself in the different writing styles of many great authors and guides to agrarianism as a whole.
