Why read it?
1 author picked How to Live Off-Grid as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I have read this book several times it is so packed with ideas and inspiration. The author travels to a variety of communities, some small, some larger, and investigates how the people are tackling their ambition for self-sufficiency in numerous different ways.

From Piers' list on The best books on self-sufficiency.
