One Man's Meat is a delightful collection of essays that are too personal for an almanac, too sophisticated for a domestic history, and too funny and self-doubting for a literary journal. This timeless recounting of experiences serves as a primer of a countryman's lessons, filled with wit and charm that never goes out of style.

Set against the backdrop of a Maine saltwater farm, E.B. White offers his witty and succinct observations on daily life, capturing the essence of country living with humor and grace.
