Wisdom of the Last Farmer: Harvesting Legacies from the Land by David Mas Masumoto

4.0

I really enjoyed reading about David's experiences as a farmer and hearing his perspective on issues that go beyond the peach trees. He has an easy writing style that conveys his passion for farming; his insights are always welcome and never cliche. I'd imagine that it's very rare that working farmers write at the same time so that makes also makes this book special. An Early Childhood class I'm taking on Narrative Inquiry and Memoir required reading this book and I'm really glad it did. It's always refreshing to move beyond more closely focused education fare. This book is a gulp of fresh air.
