Smallholdings - Two Acres and Freedom J. Baker

This early work is a fascinating read for any small-holding enthusiast or historian of small-scale farming, which contains a wealth of information that is still useful and practical today. Illustrated with dozens of full page photographs. Contents Include: Peace and Plenty; Specialisation or No?; Markets and Marketing; Two Acres of Salads; Two Acres of Apples; Two Acres of Flowers; Rabbits for Flesh and Fur; Home Consumption; Buildings, Machinery and Tools; A Little About Many Things; Sources to Look to For Information; and Budgets. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
