On Good Land: The Autobiography of an Urban Farm
Michael Ableman wrote "On Good Land" about his farm, surrounded by the city on all sides.
He has to fight not only the weather and the soil, but also heedless developers and selfish suburbanites, to get a crop to market.
And he's remarkably placid and patient about it.
