| Summary | "Making Home Profitable" by Kate V. Saint Maur is a practical guide written in the early 20th century. The book explores the concept of transforming a traditional home into a self-sustaining and economically viable space, focusing particularly on farming practices that can lead to a profitable household. The author reflects on her own journey from urban living to achieving rural prosperity through poultry and gardening. The opening of the book introduces the author’s personal story, detailing her transition from a challenging urban existence to discovering the joys and benefits of rural life. Faced with financial strain, she decides to seek a cheaper home, leading her to embrace the idea of having a house with a garden where she can raise chickens and grow her own vegetables. This segment emphasizes her determination, gradual learning curve in managing a farm, and ultimate success in creating a self-sufficient household, paving the way for the practical lessons she plans to share about home profitability.
