This book describes to readers what life could be like living off the grid. He explains how you can do a little (like growing your own herbs or composting) to a lot (like living off the grid, raising your own animals and growing your own grain). I learned the trick about cutting a tree a knowing how far it would fall when I had large pine trees removed this autumn. The man did exactly what the author said to do. Amazing!
He provides information on how to raise chickens, which are best for eggs and eating. He also provides information on how to sew, make soap, and use a saw. He describes the differences between earth houses and the different climates. I learned so much reading this book! If you are interested in improving your life by providing more for yourself, you will enjoy reading this book.
