Overview

A hard look at the problems of agriculture in a growing industrial economy by the 1955 Pulitzer Prize-winning editor of the Des Moines Register and Tribune. His book is a clear and authoritative call for a "new look" at farm policy, written for both the city and farm reader.

Originally published in 1957.
