Publisher's summary
"The Thrifty Homesteader: Homesteading on a Budget" by Charles Martin is a comprehensive guide that empowers aspiring homesteaders to embark on a self-sufficient lifestyle without breaking the bank. Martin, an experienced homesteader himself, shares practical insights, cost-effective strategies, and invaluable tips for creating a sustainable homestead on a budget.
The book begins by outlining the fundamental principles of homesteading and dispelling the misconception that it requires significant financial investment. Martin emphasizes the importance of resourcefulness, creativity, and a mindset geared towards frugality.
Drawing on his own experiences, he provides real-life examples and success stories to inspire listeners to pursue their homesteading dreams without compromising their financial stability. One of the key strengths of Martin's approach lies in his ability to break down the various components of homesteading into manageable and affordable steps.
From land acquisition and housing to food production and livestock management, the author offers step-by-step guidance on how to make informed decisions that align with a tight budget. He explores alternative methods for acquiring land, repurposing materials, and maximizing the potential of small spaces.
In addition to practical advice on infrastructure, "The Thrifty Homesteader" delves into frugal gardening techniques, sustainable energy solutions, and innovative ways to raise animals economically. Martin addresses the importance of self-sufficiency in producing food and energy, encouraging listeners to explore homemade alternatives and reduce their reliance on external sources.

Is bourbon the quintessential American liquor? Bourbon is not just alcohol - the amber-colored drink is deeply ingrained in American culture and tangled in American history. From the early days of raw corn liquor to the myriad distilleries that have proliferated around the country today, bourbon is a symbol of the United States. This course traces bourbon's entire history, from the 1700s, with Irish, Scottish, and French settlers setting up stills and making distilled spirits in the New World, through today's booming resurgence.

We live in a world of seeds. From our morning toast to the cotton in our clothes, they are quite literally the stuff and staff of life, supporting diets, economies, and civilizations around the globe. Just as the search for nutmeg and the humble peppercorn drove the Age of Discovery, so did coffee beans help fuel the Enlightenment and cottonseed help spark the Industrial Revolution. And from the fall of Rome to the Arab Spring, the fate of nations continues to hinge on the seeds of a Middle Eastern grass known as wheat.

Story
A Natural History of North American Trees gives us a picture of life in America from its earliest days to the middle of the last century. The information is always interesting, though often heartbreaking. While Peattie looks for the better side of man's nature, he reports sorrowfully on the greed and waste that have doomed so much of America's virgin forest.
