About the author
Born in 1888, William Budington Duryee is known as the author of farming books including A Living from the Land and Farming for Security.
The available records found during this search point to him as a practical agricultural writer rather than a literary figure. His work appears aimed at helping ordinary readers think about farming as both a livelihood and a way to build stability.
Little biographical detail was readily confirmed in the sources reviewed here, so it is best to treat him as a somewhat obscure author whose reputation rests mainly on his nonfiction books about farming and rural self-sufficiency.
