A Family Farm - Life on an Illinois Dairy Farm

During the past century two-thirds of all family-operated farms in America disappeared. This title tells the personal story of one such farm from 1916 to 1991, told from the perspectives of four generations. Set within the context of the trends in agricultural economics and rural life, it offers an historical perspective on family-operated farms.
