Editorial Reviews:
Synopsis:

Berry's assessment of modern agriculture and its relationship to American culture--our health, economy, personal relationships, morals, and spiritual values--is more timely than ever. This new edition of Berry's work presents a a classic testament to the value of the American family farm.


Review:

"Our land is more undone by our agriculture than by any other mischief. Farmer/poet/essayist Wendell Berry speaks to the matter with plain speech--it rasps the brain, leaves the memory of the thought. Don't say it is no longer possible to do our farming right. Berry is."

Stewart Brand, Millennium Whole Earth Catalog

Book Description: Sierra Club Books, United States, 2004. Paperback. Book Condition: New. 3rd Revised edition. 203 x 133 mm. Brand New Book with Free Worldwide Delivery. Since its original publication in 1977, "The Unsettling of America" has been recognized as a classic of American letters. In it, Wendell Berry argues that good farming is a cultural development and spiritual discipline. But today's agribusiness takes farming out of its cultural context and away from families, and as a nation we are thus more estranged from the land - from the intimate knowledge, love, and care of it.Sadly, as Berry notes in this edition, his arguments and observations are even more relevant than ever. We continue to suffer loss of community, the devaluation of human work, and the destruction of nature under an economics dedicated to the mechanistic pursuit of products and profits. Although "this book has not had the happy fate of being proved wrong," Berry writes, there are good people working "to make something comely and enduring of our life on this earth." Wendell Berry is one of those people, writing and working, as ever, with passion, eloquence, and conviction. Bookseller Inventory # AAC9780871568779
