Book by Berry Wendell
Les informations fournies dans la section « Synopsis » peuvent faire référence à une autre édition de ce titre.
The 24 essays in The Gift of Good Land cover a variety of subjects, from the author's journeys to the Peruvian Andes, to Amish country to study the evolution of ancient agricultural practices. Wendell Berry develops the compelling argument that the ""gift"" of good land has strings attached. We have it only on loan and only for as long as we practice good stewardship.
