Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Scorching heat. Bitter cold. Relentless wind. No trees. Scarce water. That's what settlers faced in 1879 on the Kansas plains. Four generations of the Crawford family survive and eventually prosper during 120 years of farming the Kansas prairie. Tales of hardship, humor, and grit merge with details of the enormous changes in mechanization, economics, and political forces as the country transitions from a mostly rural nation to a mostly urban one. Crawford's personal story coupled with his research on the evolution of farming from the homestead to the recent prairie fires describe the birth and transformation of his family farm. After their trek from Pennsylvania, with a stop to earn money in Kansas City, the family took possession of their Kansas High Plains homestead. Moving out of their canvas covered wagons they started their home. Self-reliant homesteaders, Harmon and Candus Crawford, dug a well and cut prairie sod to build their first home-a 'soddy.' With few trees available, they quarried the native limestone for fence posts. Stories, photos, and charts portray life on the farm from Harmon and Candus through three more generations. Towns spring up, grow, expand, and decline. Life might be hard, but the community is strong. The integration of family anecdotes with meticulous research describes how the weather, the mechanization of farm equipment, the transition from horse-power to tractor-power, two world wars, the Great Depression, the ensuing Dust Bowl, government farm programs, and the changing economics of farming all influenced the nature of High Plains farming. The author describes his life as the fourth generation on that farm and his family obligation to care for the land with good planning and conservation of resources to grow it from the original 160 acres to 1200 acres today. In 2001, the Kansas Farm Bureau designated the Crawford farm a Century Farm-one continuously owned by a single family for 100 years or more. The narrative concludes with a thought-provoking discussion of the future of rural communities, the options for farmers, and High Plains farming.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Rebel Heart invites readers to reflect on the historic social and political shifts of the 1950s, '60s, and '70s. Marietta Anderzon, both witness and participant, recounts a life shaped by rebellion, resilience, betrayal, and transformation.Growing up in small-town Kansas, Marietta learns early to stand her ground-facing down bullies, defending the marginalized, and once fending off a kidnapper with a pocketknife. Debate hones her voice, and by the turbulent 1960s, she's primed to challenge authority, confront gender discrimination, and push back against censorship.In college, she meets a brilliant, stylish debater with a past connection. They fall in love, marry, and move to Massachusetts, where he pursues graduate studies and she, in fragile health, immerses herself in art, literature, and politics while working on campus.They later settle in East Tennessee, stepping into the era's frontline struggles: civil rights, war, censorship, and academic freedom. Marietta joins the Selma voting rights march, where police confiscate her camera. When her husband supports flag-burning protestors, the university president retaliates by contacting the draft board to have him reclassified as 1-A. Soon after, a burning cross wrapped in an American flag appears on their lawn.Undeterred, Marietta completes her undergraduate degree and begins graduate school. But when she distributes anti-war leaflets, she is suspended-sparking a First Amendment legal battle that reaches the U.S. Supreme Court. Under fire from their community, they endure threats, harassment, and isolation.They eventually relocate to coal country in southwest Virginia, build a home, and try to rebuild. But the stresses of activism, cultural change, infidelity, and disillusionment strain their marriage. Later, they return to Kansas to start over, opening a small business far from academia and protests. …
