This book recalls life on a small family farm in Western Kentucky in the 1940s. It’s a way of life that was extraordinarily rich and fulfilling, but was also devilishly hard work. It’s truly rare today for a farm family to do all of the work described, however, farmers still grow corn, milk cows, and feed hogs, but they do so in a much more business-like way than back then. Wondering if current life is as satisfactory, come with the author as the old ways are re-created in this fascinating book.
