Country Life, by Paul Heiney

Now this is quite the collectors item:  out of print, it fetches hundreds of dollars.   (Unless, like my enterprising spouse, quite the eBay expert, you find one being retired by a library that didn't realize this is a volume most libraries should keep in their collection!)

It is a classic of homesteading.   Everything about it is warm, welcoming and informative.    To expensive to recommend purchasing, it absolutely is worth a library request if you have any interest in homesteading or farming.

On the homesteading topic, think of Seymour's book as a reference, but Heiney's book for day dreaming.
