One man's meat
(Book)

Originally published: New York : Harper & Row, [1982] c1944. With new introd.

First published in 1942, One Man's Meat has been in print almost without interruption. Now these classic essays on Maine life have come home to roost with a Maine publisher.

E. B. White began this collection as a series of pieces for Harper's Magazine when he left New York City and moved to a saltwater farm in Brooklin, Maine. His observations on town meetings, poultry, the weather, songbirds, compost, taxes, war, winter, and much more will resonate just as strongly today -- to anyone attuned to Maine life -- as they did half a century ago.
