Publication date: 1954
Published by: Schocken books, New York
From reading the insert that is in the front cover of the book it said that it was when Helen and Scott having abandoned the city in 1932 for a rural life based on real life living, good health, and a minimum of cash try to live on little as possible surviving the growing world around them.
In the first twenty-five pages they are looking for the ideal place to live this life that they want for themselfs. The location that they want has to be isolated place were there ideals and ideas can flow wild.
So far i don't think the book is overly exciting in the way that i thought but as the challenges they face might be interesting. The ways that they make their self-substaining life like composting practicle ways that they sufficient for 60 years.
1. Think and discuss about what challenges they will face in rest of book?
2. If you were them what would you do to be sufficient for as long as they have?
3. If this book took blace now days what do you think would change?
