I finished up Henry Beston's Northern Farm: A Glorious year on a small Maine farm a while ago, maybe a week. Technology changes, but people and how people react to technology really doesn't change. It sounds like he had the perfect small Maine farm, up on a hill with a pond or lake at its feet, close to the coast but not on the coast.

At these times when I feel so distressed, it's good to remember that people have thought society was going downhill for much longer than I've been alive. It's a perverse kind of perspective.
