Book excerpt: Excerpt from Our Heritage in the Land, Vol. 5 I have frequently been asked to arrange for the issue of a revised and cheap edition of Back to the Land. It is more than twelve years ago since that book was published During that period much has been done in the direction of carrying out many of the proposals therein made, but it has not been possible for me to find sufficient spare time for the investigation and research as to the results attained, which would be necessary for a new edition. The questions considered in that book on which recent information was mainly desired were as to (a) the use of land for the relief of the unemployed, and (b) the method by which hand husbandry could be extended in England. I have found it possible to prepare this volume, treating of these questions, by using parts of three chapters of Back to the Land, and adding thereto much further information as the result of consideration of recent experience on the subject. To secure profitable work on the land for those who have already left the country is far more difficult than to provide land under conditions which will tend to enable those now in the country to remain. I would, therefore, specially direct attention to the portion of Chapter IV., from page 112, being the part of the book treating of this particular question.
