The Big White House on the Corner (eBook, ePUB)

Beschreibung

The mid-western United States is well known for its hospitality and strong agricultural ties. Traveling through the area, one is treated to rolling hills, thick forests and lush, green grass and forage lands made so by the fertile soil that drew many settlers to the area in America's young years. Many historic properties can be found nestled safely within these rolling hills, including several family farms that have been tended by generations of hard working farmers. This book takes the reader on a journey of one such family farm in Springville, Indiana, giving details into the ancestors who homesteaded the land as well as describing the architecture and changes each generation has made while serving as overseer of the property. This is a wonderfully insightful and informative piece of writing documenting the metamorphosis of the homestead from its humble beginning to the modern agricultural operation as it stands today.
