The Blog is now a Book

Thanks to everyone who reads this blog for your patience in the last few months; I haven’t posted much because I was working on a big project. Now that I’m holding the hard copy, I can make the announcement: Academica Press has now published my first book, the culmination of 20 years of interviews with elderly people in rural Ireland.
Most people here know that I spent decades in the countryside there raising a daughter and experimenting with gardening, beekeeping, food preservation and self-sufficient crafts. I learned a lot from my neighbours, who grew up without modern technology in traditional communities, and pulled together hundreds of interviews, memoirs, diaries and other sources to create a picture of a sustainable, old-fashioned world.
I’ll be posting excerpts of the book here over the next several months, as well as on my blog, on my web site and in magazines articles. I'll be working on an audiobook and will be doing speaking gigs about it, so contact me about that. In the meantime, if you’re interested, feel free to purchase a copy here.
