"In addition to offering a compelling look at the Slow Food movement in his neck of the woods, Weaver also provides resources for new converts and old adherents, including numerous recipes, relevant websites, and 'The Slow Food Manifesto,' which admirably advocates a program of 'international exchange of experiences, knowledge, and projects,' all in the name of good food and a better life." (Publishers Weekly) "Jim Weaver has written a book for anyone who has ever wondered about the growing trend toward local and sustainable food but who is not already immersed in the culture. He is the kind of crusader who will bring others to this cause because of his childlike delight at the remarkable items in his food shed rather than his trenchant argements, although he is plenty persuasive. Whereas much of what we hear about the food system and the American diet is disheartening, Weaver's account inspires hope. His book should inspire many to join him in this cause." (Foreword Review) "Not only did I find JIm's journey fascinating, but his stories about the people he meets along the way are also intriguing, giving backstory insights into local food lore." - Faith Bahadurian (Princeton Packet) "We are working to build a different world--one where food and farming are sources of health and well being for all people and the planet; one where food can be good, clean and fair. Jim Weaver sees that that different world is already partially built. Through telling that story, he paints a picture of what is possible." - Josh Viertel (President, Slow Food USA)
