Description: "Beyond the Furrow: Some Keys to Successful Farming in the Twentieth Century," by Hiram M. Drache. Hardcover with no dust jacket, published in 1976. First edition. Drache, a professor at Concordia College and also a farmer himself, had already written two books about farming in the Upper Midwest when he decided to write this book — about what the future for farming in that region looked like. "After more than 50,000 miles of driving and a total of approximately 18 months away from home on research trips," he wrote in the preface, "I obtained more than 3,500 pages of interview notes to suport or contradict another 3,000 pages of notes gathered from census reports, agricultural statsticians, books on agriculture, and farm magazines." Illustrated with numerous photos and endpaper maps showing the locations of farms the author visited in Iowa, Minnesota, Montana, North Dakota, South Dakota, and Southern Canada. With a bibliography, glossary and index, 551 pages. I pack carefully and ship promptly, free via USPS Media Mail.
