Reviews
"For the suburbanite with just enough space for a little garden to the die-hard homesteaders and everyone in between, The Encyclopedia of Country Living makes for both fascinating reading and a truly essential reference source. You won't find a more complete source of step-by-step information about growing, processing, cooking and preserving every kind of food--from the garden, the orchard, the field or the barnyard!" Rodale Book Club "If you're dreaming about moving "back to the land" someday, or if you're already there and want to live more self-sufficiently (wherever you may be) you'll want a copy of ... T he Encyclopedia of Country Living." Organic Gardening "This book is a monument to the coevolution of a person and an idea. As folk literature. . . this book should be shelved in your collection between the Foxfire books and Alicia Bay Lau­rel's Living on Earth ." Whole Earth catalog "Urbanites will find the recipes and resources list. . . useful, the trivia interesting. . . and Emery's personal reflections. . . com­pelling. Even readers with no plans to raise sheep, sell home­made cheese or plant millet will find this a fascinating cultural document." Publishers Weekly "Packed with old wisdom as well as up-to-date websites and mail-order sources to make country living easier." Country Almanac "Although mainly a modern individualist's resource on how to grow and prepare food, this work is much more. As one aston­ished browser acclaimed, 'Is there anything this book doesn't tell you how to do?'" Library Journal "If you're thinking about ditching the city and reconnecting with a simpler, more direct way of life, living the self-sufficient lifestyle full-bore, or just living more directly and simply where you are right now, The Encyclopedia covers a wealth of information to keep you on target." Lehman's Country Living "If I could only have one comprehensive how-to book on self-reliant living, this would be it." Backwoods Home Magazine "The Encyclopedia of Country Living by Carla Emery is one of my favorite finds. It is a guide to all things country and, for those of us that don't get down on the farm as often as we would like to, it is a mini vacation from the asphalt jungle. ...a warm and inviting trip to your Grandmother's kitchen table and that, alone, is reason enough to pick up a copy for your own library." The Jefferson County Post "While it is impossible for one book to have everything you need, 'The Encyclopedia of Country Living' does an exceptional job of giving you the most bang for your buck when it comes to needing a single resource where you are likely to find the answer to your country living questions." Outdoor Self Reliance "Practical advice, invaluable information, and collected wis­dom for folks and farmers in the country, city, and anywhere in between." Territorial Seed catalog

  • The Source of Sources for a Sustainable Future

    This book is the Bible of sustainability. Pretty much everything you need to ensure that a self sufficient life can be led. If the information that you are looking for isn’t in this book then they at least list other authors, agencies, companies, or any other info outlets where you can find it. The Encyclopedia of Country Living is a must have for anyone from a homeless person to the top 10%ers and everyone in between who wants to learn the basics and beyond with gardening, soil remediation, structuring a homestead, livestock husbandry, and many other things with tried and true methods based on experience. It’s a very easy read and goes into a laypersons depth of explanation. I highly recommend this book for anyone and everyone especially those who care about our Mother Earth and her gift ...

  • EXCELLENT READ AND EXCELLENT INFORMATION!!!!

    This book is HUGE - it looks like a humongous catalog. Reads like a novel. Extremely well written and interesting! I cannot put it down. The only negative is that some of the references are out-dated. But you can find most of the seeds, plants, tools, etc on Ebay and Amazon and other sites. At the time this book was written I would be willing to bet mail order specialty companies were the only resources for some of this stuff. Highly recommend this book for information on a WIDE range of topics. You will not be disappointed!

  • Very Much an Encyclopedia

    This truly is an encyclopedia; the content is exhaustive, but it's well organized. I haven't utilized enough of the information in it to know how well sourced it is but I bought it because other people who have recommend it. The Encyclopedia was well packaged and shipped in good time, and all in all I'm well pleased with this purchase.
