Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: This book is my bible!! Comment: I found this book on a friends shelf and had to buy my own immediately. It inspired me so much that I have moved to New Zealand and bought a ten acre small-holding which is run using John Seymour's principles. This book is approachable and amusing, it is not everything you'll ever need to be self-siffient buts it a bloody good start and always the first place I look for information. Customer Rating: Summary: the best book I ever bought Comment: Genuinely, this book has enriched my life. This sounds very strong language, but a glimpse of how achieveable a degree of self sufficiency can be is a great stress-buster and very uplifting. Practical, useful, full of ideas and inspiration, this book will motivate anyone to take a step or two towards self sufficiency, wherever they live. Every chapter is interesting, well written, and well illustrated. The craft skills are useful and practical and whilst a compost-toilet is not quite the thing for our garden in the suburbs, all the practical projects are well described and amply illustrated. A great reference book, a comfort on a cold winter's night, I recommend it to anyone. Customer Rating: Summary: review Comment: A must have for all small holders.Not a full complete guide but nonetheless full of great info and knowledge. A book i reread and reread from one season to the next. Customer Rating: Summary: worth while Comment: Im not much of a person for writing or reading, more of a hands on sort of person, but i read this book and it was incredible. The author makes it clear and easy to understand, giving good diagrams along with step by step procedures. I would reccomend this book to anyone, as i hve done, its well worth the money. Customer Rating: Summary: Excellent addition to the coffee table. . . or museum Comment: Regarded as a classic by many, Seymour's tome has slipped sadly out of date and the 2003 relaunch did little to correct some aspects which - in Britain at least - have been overtaken by legislation. To recommend a swill bucket for pigs is inexcusable as contaminated swill is generally accepted to be the cause of the 2001 foot and mouth outbreak. There's a lot of interesting stuff - including Seymour's unusual and ill-informed culinary ideas - which will keep you amused, but little for the serious smallholder. It is rarely looked and never consulted on our farm. One fellow-farmer, on being asked if he followed Seymour's advice, said he would love to, but the day had yet to be extended to 37 hours.
