I still love browsing my 1975 and '78 People's Almanacs -- fun and very poignant. But prescient? They asked 5 "psychics" in '75 to give predictions, with what year they'd happen. With hindsight on my side, and - even grading flexibly -- I gave them a 2.5 percent success rate. #booksky #history

The Unsettling of America -- This 1977 book by the underrated environmentalist and social critic Wendell Berry shows how the environmental, economic and energy crises are part of a wider "crisis of character." Berry foresaw today's calamities with remarkable prescience. #booksky
