Cosmic Coincidence:
"The Homestead Act, signed by President Abraham Lincoln on May 20, 1862, was a pivotal piece of legislation that provided 160 acres of public land to settlers willing to improve and cultivate it. The Act officially ended in 1976."
This was a post published at the bottom of the page on Bookshop.org's Homesteading book selection page.
I recently mentioned legal homesteading here in a reply recently to another Perma Resilience member.
