Book Synopsis When Horses Pulled the Plow by : Olaf F. Larson
Download or read book When Horses Pulled the Plow written by Olaf F. Larson and published by Univ of Wisconsin Press. This book was released on 2011-06-01 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1910, when Olaf F. Larson was born to tenant livestock and tobacco farmers in Rock County, Wisconsin, the original barn still stood on the property. It was filled with artifacts of an earlier time—an ox yoke, a grain cradle, a scythe used to cut hay by hand. But Larson came of age in a brave new world of modern inventions—tractors, trucks, combines, airplanes—that would change farming and rural life forever. When Horses Pulled the Plow is Larson’s account of that rural life in the early twentieth century. He weaves invaluable historical details—including descriptions of farm equipment, crops, and livestock—with wry tales about his family, neighbors, and the one-room schoolhouse he attended, revealing the texture of everyday life in the rural Midwest almost a century ago. This memoir, written by Larson in his ninth decade, provides a wealth of details recalled from an earlier era and an illuminating read for anyone with their own memories of growing up on a farm.

Download or read book Plow-horse Cavalry written by and published by . This book was released on 1974 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Robert S. Weddle weaves the letters exchanged between Americus Leonidas Nelms and his wife Minerva Jane--his maternal grandparents--during the Civil War into a narrative about the Civil War itself. He resists the temptation to make it a family story, offering evidence of heroism and self-sacrifice by those whose forebears served in the Confederacy. The Civil War story, from whatever angle it is viewed, is one of pathos, suffering, and tragedy. It is as much so when regarded in the perspective of the deserters and those who suffered unreasoning persecution for their Union sympathies as when seen in the eyes of the long-suffering and homesick Confederate soldier. The fact is epitomized in this study of the North Texas area, whose people were sharply divided on the matter of secession.

Book Synopsis Amish Enterprise by : Donald B. Kraybill
Download or read book Amish Enterprise written by Donald B. Kraybill and published by JHU Press. This book was released on 2004-04-19 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Amish culture has been rooted in the soil since its beginnings in 1693. But what happens when members of America's oldest Amish community enter non-farm work in one generation? How will hundreds of cottage industries and micro-enterprises reshape the heart of Amish life? Will traditional eighth grade education still prove adequate? What about gender roles, child-rearing practices, leisure activities, and growing ties with outsiders? Amish Enterprise was the first book to discuss these dramatic changes that are transforming Amish communities across North America. Based on interviews with more than 150 Amish entrepreneurs, the authors trace the rise and impact of businesses in Lancaster's Amish settlement in recent decades. In this new edition, the authors update demographic and technological changes, and also describe Amish enterprises outside of Pennsylvania in a new chapter.

Download or read book Horse-Drawn Days written by Jerry Apps and published by Wisconsin Historical Society. This book was released on 2013-01-07 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Before tractors or steam engines arrived on the farm, horses did all the heavy work. From spring plowing to the fall harvest, the mighty draft horse powered farms across the Midwest. Relied upon to complete a multitude of tasks, including towing threshing machines and plows, hauling milk to the local cheese factory, and pulling the family buggy to church each Sunday, these animals were at the center of farm life, cementing the bond between human and horse. Horse-Drawn Days: A Century of Farming with Horses captures stories of rural life at a time when a team of horses was a vital part of the farm family. Author Jerry Apps pairs lively historic narrative with reminiscences about his boyhood on the family farm in Wisconsin to paint a vivid picture of a bygone time. Featuring fascinating historic photos, ads, and posters, plus contemporary color photos of working horses today, Horse-Drawn Days evokes the majesty of these animals and illuminates the horse’s role in our country’s early history and our rural heritage.
