Baltaz, Diane P. Living Off the Land: A Spirituality of Farming. : Novalis, 1991
To Acquire Contact: Biblio Out of Print BooksNotes: "Based on interviews with various farmers, Baltaz examines the relationship between farming and spirituality. This book explores the question of whether there is something distinctive about agriculture that sets it apart from other family enterprises. Baltaz explains that for men and for women farming is a spiritual experience; that both feel strongly connected to nature, their families and their local communities. Through their own words, farm women and men make a convincing case for the importance of recognizing that family farming is a distinct way of life which ought to be preserved."
