## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    From a non-farmer....GREAT read!
  

*by I***2 on Reviewed in the United States on May 10, 2015*

Very interesting to the layperson (city type). Much to think about that was never considered. I have passed this around to several with similar comments. All found this very informative. There may not be anything "spectacular or noteworthy" to a farm type person, but was a real eye-opener to us. Highly recommended for those who know nothing about farming, just for general thoughts about what is done and should be done on a farm.

### ⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Emphasis on "Agricultural"
  

*by S***N on Reviewed in the United States on January 11, 2007*

Writer and farmer Wendell Berry is known for his clarity and wisdom.  This collection from 1982 is not a hiccough in that summation.  However, this particular book may be slightly less accessible to general readers in that the emphasis is more on the "Agri" than the "Cultural."  Though in his mind there is no such silly bifurcation.  The first part contains essays about his visits to farms in Peru and the American Southwest, as well as an essay about the native grasses of his home state of Kentucky.  From there the topics range from the pleasures and practicalities of using actual horsepower on farms to protesting against a nuclear reactor all the way to the essay from which the book draws its name.  That essay alone (a theological study of land stewardship) is worth the price of the book.  All in all, these are excellent essays, but as many of them were drawn from farming journals, may find less of an audience.  However, that should not stop anyone, suburbanite nor city dweller, from reading this fine, fine collection. "To see and respect what is there is the first duty of stewardship." --from "The Native Grasses and What They Mean."

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    The way things ought to be.
  

*by M***Y on Reviewed in the United States on March 19, 2014*

Entertaining and thought provoking essays on sustainable agriculture and living close to the land.  The life that was so common in  our country until after WWII.  Very worthwhile read.
