my pie in the sky wishlist at powells. really though, i can get more book elsewhere for cheaper so i'm all about the gift certificates! ;)
i'm not interested in making any money off of any of this, i just wanted to be able to post the book cover pictures because that's prettier and more interesting.
theoretically, i would get a comission off of any purchases through this site, but a) i'm not expecting a dime, and b) if i do get a dime, it'll go to a charity. which? not sure. if you have any ideas/inclinations, please tell me.
also, check out the following sites for (usually) cheaper prices: bookfinder.com, alibris.com, overstock.com, & bookcloseouts.com.
i’ve been on a bit of a kick recently, reading books about urban folks who turned to rural woods and farms, looking for “the good life” the nearings and others wrote about and lived. in this book, a new york couple buys a little bit of land in upper state new york and before they know it, they’re setting up booths at various farmer’s markets selling wildflowers.
a good book, not too badly written, compared to so many others in this ‘back-to-the-land’ field. i looked around online and it seems they still are around, selling at major farmer’s markets in new york city.
