Editorial Reviews

ROBERT BRUSS, NATIONALLY SYNDICATED REAL ESTATE COLUMNIST
For those interested in moving to rural areas, this monumental book addresses thousands of potential concerns. The author anticipates virtually everything. Chapter topics include The Ideal Country Home; Buy Your Land as Soon as You Can; Wants, Needs and Fantasies; Developing a Criteria List; Lifestyle; Choose Your Climate; Land Characteristics: Topography, Soil and Vegetation; The Cost of Living; Making a Living; Farming and Market Gardening; Air; Water; Health 101; Demographics and Social Conditions; Services and Taxes; To Build or Not to Build; Prices; Regions, Bioregions, States; Real Country, Boondocks and Old Subsistence Farms; Places to Avoid; Real Estate Law and Real Estate Agents; and Making a Final Evaluation Before Purchase. This is one of those rare realty books that is well-researched, extremely well-written and interesting enough to be compelling. On my scale of one to 10, this fantastic new book rates an off-the-chart 12.
