I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book! Of course, that's not so amazing as all of Anna Hess's publications are a joy to read, but I think this was my favorite by far.My husband and I did some trailer steading with a repo'd double wide on a lake lot in South Carolina. What we didn't spend on house, we were able to spend on a driveway, chick chalet for our flock of hens, boat dock for our pond, fruit trees, raised bed gardens, and on and on it goes. We enjoyed the experience and when we had to sell the place due to a job relocation, we actually made a profit in this economy! That would NOT likely have happened with a traditional home.Trailer-steading is a great way to get back to the land without an avalanche of debt hanging over your head. Thank you to Anna Hess for detailing the many variations on the trailer steading theme. By giving many examples, it really sparks the ideas in the reader's mind of how they might be able to do the same thing.I will likely read this book again and gift to others. It's that good.Jennifer ShambrookAuthor ofI CAN CAN BEEF!! How to can beef to save money and time with quick, easy, delicious family recipes (I CAN CAN Frugal Living Series)
