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
