ry of June and Farrar Burn and their unconventional lifestyle, philosophy, and experiences-homesteading a small island in the Salish Sea, living north of the Arctic Circle before Alaska became a state, touring the U.S. in the Burn Ballad Bungalow (pictured on the front cover), and how they lived in a covered wagon while June, at age fifty, earned her master's degree in soil science and nutrition.

This seventh edition includes additional photographs and an epilogue by Skye Burn, June and Farrar's eldest granddaughter.
