Henry County native writer, philosopher, farmer and activist Wendell Berry wants to move past his book.
Berry’s book, “The Unsettling of America: Culture and Agriculture” celebrates its 36-year anniversary this year.
In the book, Berry delivers discourse on the hijacking of farming from a family culture into the insatiable appetite of large scale farming production. Berry renders the beginnings of conquest in the ‘New World’ with historical threads of alienation from the land in a seam calling for sensible land stewardship.
