I just checked this book out from our local library in the San Francisco Bay Area. Novella Carpenter wrote "Farm City" (2009) about her experiences gardening and raising livestock on a city lot in Oakland. California. The book seems to be entertaining and realistic; she includes a useful bibliography of sources related to urban homesteading.
No, she is not surviving in the "wilderness" but she has good insight on how people in urban and suburban areas can be more self-sufficient. As we say in Berkeley: "right on, groovy".
