ELIOT COLEMAN & THE SMALL FARM RESEARCH ASSOCIATION
(Page 3 of 12)
This bibliography is not exhaustive. Many readers will wish
to add to it.. Every effort, however, has been made to
compile a reasonably complete list of those books which
merit attention. Most of these are out of print, especially
the older ones published in England. Notation is made in
this bibliography of those titles that have been recently
reprinted and which should be available. The rest may be
found in libraries.
RELATED CONTENT
There has been no attempt at mono-think. As might be
expected the authors do not always agree with each other.
Some are only involved on the periphery of biological
agriculture. Those authors are starred who present the most
reputable evidence for their case.
And finally, a suggestion for those who intend to pursue
the subject of biological agriculture through these books.
It is most important to read critically, check references,
compare, and see what the other side has to say in order
not to become, tike so many proselytizers of a new idea, "a
man of vast and varied misinformation".
ALBRECHT, WILLIAM A.

An outstanding survey of the subject by the most respected
American exponent of intelligent farming. Albrecht begins

animal health. Recommended.

expert. In French. Recommended.
BAKER, C. ALMA
The Labouring Earth Heath Cranton 1940
A survey of agriculture from the bio-dynamic point of view.
We are not out to convince anyone of the truth of the
discoveries we have made of the way the soil transforms
itself in three years using our methods, for we are
confident ourselves that time will do that for us. We put
forward this method as an alternative to the orthodox
gardening techniques, which today involve growers in heavy
labor costs and outlay on stable and artificial manures,
things which bite so deeply into profits of intensive
cultivation of vegetables and plants. When we describe how
something should be done, we have done it that way and made
a profit out of it.
Dalziel O'Brien, Intensive
Gardening
BALFOUR, LADY EVE
The Living SoilFaber
1943
The important early work by a founder of the Soil
Association. Lady Eve documents the evidence for biological
agriculture. A fine book that should be in everyone's
library. Recommended. Reprinted 1975.
