Book Reviews of Micro Eco-Farming: Prospering from Backyard to Small Acreage in Partnership with the Earth

Book Review: Not much practical use
Summary: 2 Stars

If I were an urbanite who knew nothing about gardening or nature, I suppose this could be a good inspirational book. But for someone who is seriously researching ways of "prospering from backyard to small acreage," this book is virtually no help. No details...not even suggestions on what size to build raised beds. The author expounds page after page on living with nature, which I appreciate, but the philosophical underpinnings of such do not provide the logistics of making money.
