Synopsis

This book is a compendium of over 150 years of American agricultural history, from the 1700s to the 1840s. It includes essays and articles from over 65 experts; some of the era's most influential agriculturalists. They capture the evolution of agricultural methods and thought from the founders of the new nation into the pre-Civil War era. The essays cover a broad cross-section of topics, including fertilization, crop rotation, land clearing and drainage, as well as social and economic issues affecting farmers. It's an excellent resource for farmers and historians alike, and provides a deep look into the problems and successes of early American agriculture, and the genesis of the ideas we still use to grow food today.
