"The Holy Earth" by L. H. Bailey is a thought provoking book from the early 1900’s that looks at how people should think about the world around them. It says that the earth is not just something for people to use, but something alive and important that we need to take care of. The book talks about doing what's right for the environment, farming in a good way, and how we should feel responsible for using the earth's resources wisely. It starts by saying the earth should be treated with respect. Bailey examines bad things people do to the earth and shows how important it is to live in a way that doesn't hurt nature, urging people to see the value and goodness of nature and think differently about how they treat it.
