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. If you’re thinking of an alternative off-grid life of self-sufficiency then you will learn just as many ways that may not suit you as those that do. A great education into the realities of this sort of life.

From Piers' list on self-sufficiency.
