Book Details
First Sentence
"Once the cultivation of cereals and the domestication of animals had begun, two basic principles gradually became obvious: first, that in agriculture lay the foundations of a civilized society, making possible not only society's survival but also the devotion of time and energy to other things besides gathering food; and, second, that to have the land worked by someone else was the beginning of a civilized life."
