| Description: |
Here is a compact narrative history of American agriculture over the last century. |
| Synopsis: |
In this history of American agriculture over the last century, Mr. Hurt shows how farm men and women increasingly looked to the federal government-for technical information, regulation of business practices, and intervention in the agricultural economy. He surveys the major policy changes that helped shape farming both as a business and as a way of life. The best history of twentieth-century American agriculture I've ever read. A fine, fine book. -Peter A. Coclanis |
