From the Farm to the Table: What All Americans Need to Know About Agriculture (Culture of the Land)
by Gary H. Holthaus

Choice
“With much love, dedication, and diligence, and through interviews with farmers in Minnesota, Holthaus tells the story of today’s agriculture–it is not a pretty picture… This book serves an as eye-opener. Highly recommended.”

Library Journal
“Holthaus’s book tells the story of modern agriculture through engaging interviews with men and women who make a living farming in southeastern Minnesota. In a tone reminiscent of Wendell Berry’s A Place on Earth, he examines the far-reaching effects of genetically modified organisms, free-trade agreements that nurture `transnational corporate profit,’ dependence on fossil fuel-derived chemicals, and the toll all this has taken on the land and farmers… Recommended for academic agriculture collections.”
