The Unsettling of America: Culture & Agriculture is a 1977 work of non-fiction by American essayist, poet, and farmer Wendell Berry. In the book, Berry offers a critique of modern industrial agriculture in the United States, arguing that it leads to the degradation of the land, the breakdown of rural communities, and a loss of cultural and spiritual connection to place. The book has been widely recognized as a seminal text in agrarian thought and environmental ethics.
