pickMy grandparents were peasants but sadly spoke little about their lives.I‘ve always been drawn to agriculture:I worked a season as grape picker in France&on a mountain hut in Austria milking cows but I always had a romanticized view of peasant life.I loved this book,which gets quite philosophical at times.Although I didn‘t learn about my own ancestors I have an idea what my grandparents lives could have been like& there‘s nothing romantic about it.

pickThis book about the current generations is absolutely fascinating. Driven by data, it looks at the differences between the generations along with side by side comparisons of where they were at specific ages compared to one another. Anything that‘s at all speculative is clearly indicated as such. I loved it!
