Author Chris Murphy on his new book, 'Far Out'
Listen now
Description
A new book tells some of the stories about a huge group of people who came to Nova Scotia in the 60's and 70's from other parts of the country and the U.S. They bought land and old farm houses, or built homes. They were inspired to live differently, grow and eat their food, reject consumerism and escape the Vietnam War. Some didn't stay past the first winter, but many did. Some of their experiences are in 'Far Out.'
