The Ever-expanding TBR Pile

My To-Be-Read pile - ever-expanding, no matter how quickly I read. Sigh. (Pictures are linked either to a review that enticed me to add the book to my TBR pile, or to the book itself on Amazon or Goodreads, if it came to my attention some other way.)

What's the difference between a weanling and a yearling, or a farrow and a barrow? Country and city mice alike will delight in Julia Rothman's charming illustrated guide to the curious parts and pieces of rural living. Dissecting everything from tractors and pigs to fences, hay bales, crop rotation patterns, and farm tools, Rothman gives a richly entertaining tour of the quirky details of country life. From the shapes of squash varieties to the parts of a goat; from how a barn is constructed to what makes up a beehive, every corner of the barnyard is uncovered and celebrated. A perfect gift for gardeners, locavores, homesteaders, and country-living enthusiasts alike.
