Title: One of the greatest minds of the 20th century
Product review: I feel that this man, John Seymour, is one of the greatest minds of the 20th century. He was a mover and shaker, particularly in Great Britain, in the back-to-the-land movement. He was not a existential seeker of altered states like his American hippie counterparts, but an articulate, well traveled, well taught, well organized, proponent of traditional old world skills and a rational mind. The Self-Sufficient Gardener is a treasure trove of traditional gardening skills coupled with clarity and ingenious organization. Seymour, as a life long observer of how traditionally grown food is a foundation of a strong and healthy body, was a philosopher in the most beneficial sense--not at all like Nietzsche, Sartre, or Marx. I am pleased to now have my own copy of this classic book.
