Produktbeschreibung
A journey through both family history and the fascinating and quintessentially American history of New England's Merrimack Valley, its farmers, and the immigrant workers caught up in the industrial textile age. > In the Merrimack Valley brings together for the first time in one volume Brox's timeless trilogy: Here and Nowhere Else; Five Thousand Days Like This One (a finalist for the National Book Critics Circle Award); and Clearing Land (named a Best Book of the Year by the Chicago Tribune, Boston Globe, and Atlanta Journal-Constitution). In considering the place of the family farm today, Brox traces the transformation of the idea of wilderness--and its intricate connection to cultivation--which changed as our ties to the land loosened. Exploring these strands, Brox arrives at something beyond a biography of a farm: a vivid depiction of the half-life it carries in our collective imagination. This Nonpareil edition includes a new foreword by Suzanne Berne.
