This one-volume edition of Living the Good Life and Continuing the Good Life brings these classics on rural homesteading together. This couple abandoned the city for a rural life with minimal cash and the knowledge of self-reliance and good health.

For all the attempts to understand the state of American politics and the blue/red divide, we've ignored what economic and cultural loss can do to pride. What happens, Arlie Russell Hochschild asks, when a proud people in a hard-hit region suffer the deep loss of pride and are confronted with a powerful political appeal that makes it feel "stolen"? Hochschild's research drew her to Pikeville, Kentucky, in the heart of Appalachia, within the whitest and second-poorest congressional district in the nation.

Il libro che ha rivelato al mondo l'anima profonda dell'America. I nonni di J.D. sono sporchi, poveri e innamorati quando emigrano giovanissimi dalle regioni dei monti Appalachi verso l’Ohio nella speranza di una vita migliore. Ma quel sogno di benessere e riscatto è solo sfiorato, perché prima di diventare uomo il loro nipote lotterà a lungo con la miseria e la violenza domestica: una madre tossicodipendente, patrigni nullafacenti che si susseguono uno dopo l’altro, vicini di casa alcolisti capaci solamente di sopravvivere con i sussidi e lamentarsi del governo.

Across America’s backroads, fields once plowed by calloused hands stand overgrown. Fence posts lean where generations once braced against the wind. Homesteads that echoed with cattle, hymns, and supper-time laughter now sit quiet beneath blinking red towers of green-energy deals, foreign investors, and promises that never came true.

In the West, technological advances have progressed step-by-step, starting with landline phones.

This pathbreaking book pinpoints forces behind the rise of the "rural voter"—a new political identity that combines a deeply felt sense of place with an increasingly nationalized set of concerns. Nicholas F. Jacobs and Daniel M. Shea uncover how this overwhelmingly crucial voting bloc emerged and how it has roiled American politics. They show how perceptions of economic and social change, racial anxieties, and a traditional way of life under assault have converged into a belief in rural uniqueness and separateness.

Con el formidable éxito de ventas de Entre limones -el divertidísimo relato autobiográfico de un joven inglés que, con tal de no vestir traje y acudir a una oficina, se gasta todos sus ahorros en la compra de un ruinoso cortijo en la Alpujarra granadina- Chris Stewart dio comienzoa su célebre trilogía sobre el irresistible encanto de la vida alternativa, en la que los pequeños sucesos cotidianos y la tranquila observación del espectáculo que supone la actitud del hombre ante sus semejantes y ante la naturaleza compensan con creces los placeres materiales de una vida normal.

La extrema derecha española empezó a parecerse un poco más a la europea cuando murió el dictador Francisco Franco. La transición estuvo marcada por la violencia de los grupos parapoliciales y el terrorismo de Estado, pero pronto llegaron las bandas de skinheads neonazis, los ultras del fútbol, y poco a poco, las nuevas formaciones de ultraderecha y los movimientos sociales neofascistas.

Love for the Land explores the power and potential of people-place relationships. Through clear and compelling prose, it elevates the virtues of imagination, affection, and fidelity—concepts promoted by farmer-writer Wendell Berry—and shows how they motivate small- and mid-scale farmers to care for the land, even in the face of adversity. Paying particular attention to farmland loss from suburban sprawl, rampant agricultural consolidation, and, for farmers of color, racial injustice, Brooks Lamb reckons with the harsh realities that these farmers face.

Todos los protagonistas de las novelas de Paasilinna, el popularísimo autor finlandés, rechazan la normalidad, la mediocridad, la renuncia a los sueños, el aceptar las imposiciones y los compromisos; pero Gunnar Huttunen es la encarnación misma de esa resistencia, llevada hasta sus secuencias más extremas.

The countryside is almost sacred to many Britons. There is a depth of feeling about rural places, the moors and lochs, valleys and mountains, cottages and country houses. Yet the British countryside, so integral to our national identity, is rarely seen as having anything to do with British colonialism. In Our Island Stories, Corinne Fowler brings rural life and colonial rule together with transformative results. Through ten country walks with varied companions, Fowler combines local and global history, connecting the Cotswolds to Calcutta, Dolgellau to Virginia, and Grasmere to Canton.

From farmer, lawyer, and political activist John Klar comes a bold, solutions-based plan for Conservatives that gets beyond the fatuous pipe dreams and social-justice platitudes of the dominant, Liberal “Green” agenda—offering a healthy way forward for everyone.

Sense pràcticament adonar-nos-en, vam desconnectar de la vida rural amb l'assumpció de no tornar-hi més. Amb el temps, ens hem obstinat a generar un debat que ha confrontat la ruralitat i la urbanitat en uns termes molt simplistes: hem associat el camp i les muntanyes a unes pràctiques antigues marcades per la precarietat i l'aïllament, i les ciutats a la modernitat, al benestar i a la comoditat, que ha exterminat, però tot allò que ha considerat antic, inservible, lent i caduc.

Der vorliegende Text setzt sich mit dem Thema Individualität in Groß- bzw. Kleinstädten und ländlichen Gegenden und damit mit den unterschiedlichen Wahrnehmungen dieses womöglich unterschiedlichen Menschenschlags auseinander. Keiner wundert sich in Berlin-Wedding über 14jährige, die ihre Babywagen durch die Gegend schieben, während in ländlichen Gegenden bereits ein unverheirateter 30jähriger Mann zum Gesprächsstoff der Nachbarn wird.

Setembre de 1962. Una jove mestra de vocació dubtosa i escassa capacitat de comunicació oral arriba a la seva primera plaça en una escola del Pirineu ribagorçà. Ella volia un poble, una feina i una casa des d'on veure caure la neu. Darrere deixa una infantesa marcada per l'enigmàtica activitat del pare i per l'original educació rebuda d'una mare dividida entre l'impuls irresistible d'apartar la filla de les consignes del Règim i la por d'aïllar-la excessivament de la normalitat imperant.
