See you in a hundred years : discover one young family's search for a simpler life : four seasons of living in the year 1900 / Logan Ward.
The author describes how he and his family left the pressure of life in New York City and moved to rural Virginia to live for a year as people did in 1900, without modern technology or the conveniences of modern life, including electricity and running water, and discusses the positive impact of the experience on the entire family.
