what are you reading?

The Once and Future King TH White, today a Marion Chesney regency romance, and amongst the two dozen books littering my bedside but not yet put away (ie good enough to get into but maybe not good enough to finish, but not bad enough to get rid of or even set on the shelf finally) Gaia's Garden and Jesus Rode a Donkey Why Republicans Don't Have the Corner on Christ and rereading (them sitting on my nightstand is no slur on their readability) some Contrary Farmer books. Speaking of evolution dug out my Darwin on his birthday but it was just Journey of the Beagle not Origin of the Species so after showing DD8 some of the drawings from the artists on the voyage back on the shelf it went. Guess I want Origin of the Species on the shlef but unsure if I'll read it through.

I like reading those if nothing else for the style of writing. If you enjoy those works I'd suggest anything by Thomas Henry Huxley. As you may know, Darwin was somewhat a recluse and waited so long to publish because he knew the implications of his theory. Huxley ended up being the guy who defended the theory in the press and at scientific meetings.

Just to be clear, there is genetic change but it is never sufficient to produce a new species (i.e one that could no longer interbreed with the original species)?

Don't know about books - but can say that you should get ones that cover any thing that you are not handy with now, add to that whatever copies of MEN or BWH.

Also as Reese above suggested look or search for what you need answers to here on these forums and then print out the answers and bind them all up in some folders to keep for reference...

"Root Cellaring", by Mike and Nancy Bubel. They've written at least one article for Mother Earth news, but their book (available used on Amazon for about 9 bucks) is pretty inspiring.

Woodsprite, I just pickked that book up!!
I just finished the Grapes of Wrath. I never read it in high school, and being set in the depression era, I thought I would like it (picture Waltons all eating corn bread and patching hand me downs). This was really depressing...written in 1939, it is impossible to put down, the imagry Steinbeck uses is incredible...I just sat and thought a while after I finished it.
I have that book and a few others up for trade on the barter board if anyones interested

I just got done reading all "flesh is grass" good book about pasture farming
