Book Review - Coming Home to Eat Coming Home to Eat (The Pleasures and Politics of local food) by: Gary Paul Nabhan pub: 2002
This book tracks the authors life as he travels back to his homeland then attempts to replicate the local food systems in his life. The book is centered around Arizona and the dry desert climate. It is easy reading and provides good insight into applying sustainable ideas in todays world. A quote from the book: Until we stop craving to be somewhere else and someone else other than animals whose very cells are constituted from the place on earth we love the most, then there is little reason to care about the fate of native foods, family farms, or healthy landscapes and communities. The book encourages all of us to reconnect to our food supply and the earth at our feet. jeff
