Urban Homesteading is the new trend, but as the hippies and Thoreau knew it has been done before.  The Nearings were the new 20 century back to the landers in the US; John Seymour was their equivalent in the UK.  Starting in the 50s, having previously lived on a boat, he moved into an old estate cottage in the middle of nowhere and with his potter wife began his quest to become self sufficient.  Part memoir, part practical guide, the book is told with British humor and down to earthiness.  It is a treasure and has converted this reader into a John Seymour fan.  Seymour went on to write several other great books and to broadcast for TV and radio.

John Seymour writes as if working alongside you and enjoying every moment of it.  This is a nice complement to his "The Self-Sufficient Life and How to Live It."  This man clearly knew what he was talking about and drew from long years of personal experience.

I love narratives of people's experiences.  Those are probably my very favorite types of books.  We know and love John Seymour from later books based more on skills, how to, but this is his narrative, of his life with his family in England in the 1950s.  Yeah, so he divorced and later moved to Ireland (hey, I'd rather live in Ireland too).  This is still a beautiful and inspirational book.  But perhaps it takes a strange person like me to get excited reading about how a man grew turnips then pastured his hogs on them, and how they then canned the meat and how delicious it was.  Re-thatching his house was also very interesting, and a prescient comment on the state of real skills today.  Hmmm, I think I'll go read it again.
