This is more relevant at this age of globalization and open markets. Over dependence of super market sold food is burdening the food supply. The book has a lot of practical solutions to grow our own food with whatever land/space we have. A must read for all independent/aspiring homesteaders.

This was such a great find in a second hand bookstore. This book whilst dated (originally published in the 1970s) this book covers everything you need to be self-sufficient. The amount of detail covered, everything from land size (recommends an acre) to animals, recipes, weaving and energy sources is an unbelievable resource.
Whilst the size of book is a bit unwieldy - the content is fantastic.

I skimmed read this as its not completely required for right now - but the section on herbs once my garden is ready is great. This is a book I will never get rid of.

I'm pretty sure I will not make use of most of the knowledge compiled in this book, but it's actually a compliment to this book, as the information in it covers a lot of different topics, so it does feel pretty complete.

It's amazing to think how many years the author was learning and trying things out to share all this. And that until not long time ago people had to be self-sufficient to survive. Basically this book reminded me how many conveniences I have in my everyday life and how much my life have changed from my ancestors. Still, if I ever want to do gardening, baking bread or making sauerkraut, or decide to pick up basket making as a hobby, I definitely will open this book to get the basics of it.

Un peu old school, mais maintenant je suis prêt à vivre l’apocalypse : agriculture, élevage, chasse, artisanat, etc. Le parfait guide de l’autonomiste. L’édition plus récente est probablement un peu plus pertinente.

I might have to buy this one (read it from the library)

I want my own farm now!

[Tim · Rating 5 out of 5]

An indispensable book for anyone planning a small holding or even starting a bit of self sufficiency.
Due to its large format it's not too handy when needing to take reference whilst doing a task, more take a few notes and leave it behind.
Would like to see it in a smaller format and split into separate volumes for different topics.
Or perhaps again in smaller format and ring bound so you could put the relevant pages in a pocket size binder to take with you, rather on the Filofax principle

Like the title says, this is a practical guide. It is everything you ever wanted to know about traditional, sustainable and organic living. I'm glad to have it within reach in our allotment to consult best gardening tips for every season, as well as ways to construct a farm or garden plot for the greatest productivity while respecting and working with nature in every way. Beautiful and educational illustrations as well. Highly recommend!

My book was published in 1976 and has been a close companion through my various forays into smallholding. Many of the pages are rather soiled due to being held in one hand whilst trying to sort out a bit of meat in the other. It has helped me in the keeping and "processing" of hens, ducks, geese, goats, sheep,pigs and calves.

I have planned my dream life/farm with the help of this book. :-) Great tips for gardeners and the illustrations are lovely.

Excellent book for anyone wanting to go self-sufficient.

[Amish Schulze]

I literally could not put down this book. I have been gardening the last 5 years, bigger and bigger each time, so this made me want to grab an acre or two and really go at it.

This is the best over-all guide to self sufficiency I have seen in a while. It's thurrough, complete, detailed, informative and well written, a switch from the books I've read in recent weeks.
