Anyone read this book?

The mistaken ambition for owning twice as much land as one can thoroughly manure or profitably cultivate, is the great agricultural sin if this country.

No, but I like the sound of it already. I'll have to look out for it.

Not yet but I've ordered it from Amazon. Should be here Monday or Tuesday. Then I can read it. It sounds great! Thanks for pointing it out.
