Book Reviews of Last Harvest: How a Cornfield Became New Daleville

Book Review: Excellent book
Summary: 5 Stars

This is a great book on how suburban development works. It is very well researched and all the ideas are based on deep reasoning. There's no opinionated ranting, it was a pleasure to follow the stories described in the book.
If you are into development, new urbanism and urban design, this book's for you.
