First, let me say it is a strangely structured book, jumping all over the country to visit and discuss off-gridders in many locations. Perhaps this would have made more sense in the form a documentary film, but it doesn't quite work in this format.
That being said, it is a fun and interesting read. I enjoyed it. The author writes with with and honesty, and he has a genuine interest in off-grid living. He visits off-gridders of many varieties, examines their methods and motivations, and gives each a fair shake.
So if you are interested in this kind of thing, I do recommend this book. I respectfully disagree with those who found the author mean-spirited. He does give his opinions, and doesn't hold anything back, but I didn't get the feeling he had a ax to grind with anyone. He was probably harshest with the "inventor" of the Earthship, but from what I gather that guy probably deserves it.
