ReviewsThis remarkable body of writing stands today, after half a century, as one of the greatest books ever written., Imagine narrator Malcolm Hillgartner sitting by a fire, pipe in hand and dogs at his feet, addressing a 'gentle reader.' There's a quaintness to this audio collection from the late E. B. White...Hillgartner chose wisely: A fast-paced, contemporized narration would have undermined the writing...[in this] authentically preserved time capsule., It is a lively record of an active inquiring mind, whose sense of the ridiculous in no way impairs his appreciation of the life he lives and the people he knows...Half-farmer, half literary--he contemplates the world around him.

SynopsisIn print for over fifty years, One Man's Meat continues to delight readers with E. B. White's witty, succinct observations on daily life at a Maine saltwater farm.Too personal for an almanac, too sophisticated for a domestic history, and too funny and self-doubting for a literary journal, One Man's Meat can best be described as a primer of a countryman's lessons and a timeless recounting of experience that will never go out of style., In print for over fifty years, One Man's Meat continues to delight readers with E.
