" The Backyard Homestead is a comprehensive and accessible guide to starting a vegetable garden, raising chickens and cows, canning food, making cheese, and a whole lot more. Editor Carleen Madigan...a homesteader in her own right, draws on the dozens of books about country living that Storey has published since its founding in 1983."
