Another Turn of the Crank

<b>"A Kentucky farmer and writer, and perhaps the great moral essayist of our day, Berry has produced one of his shortest but also most powerful volumes." —<i>The New York Review of Books</i></b><br><br>From modern health care to the practice of forestry, from local focus to national resolve, Wendell Berry argues, there can never be a separation between global ecosystems and human communities—the two are intricately connected, and the health and survival of one depends upon the other.<br><br>Provocative, intimate, and thoughtful, <i>Another Turn of the Crank</i> reaches to the heart of Berry's concern and vision for the future, for America and for the world.<br><b><br>"The rarest (and highest) of literary classes consist of that small group of authors who are absolutely inimitable . . . One of the half–dozen living American authors who belongs in this class is Wendell Berry." —<i>Los Angeles Times</i><br><br>"Berry is a philosopher, poet, novelist, and an essayist in the tradition of Emerson and Thoreau . . . like Thoreau, he marches to a different drummer, a drummer we would do well to be aware of, if not to march to." —<i>San Francisco Chronicle</i></b>
