Everything a farmer grows begins in the dirt beneath his boots. Walden's thick, engraving-filled manual is a working course in soil culture: preparing, feeding, and tilling the ground for crop after crop. Dedicated to the practical cultivators he called the true lords of the manor. A comprehensive early American guide for the man who means to farm well.

Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
