Shake-Out: Iowa Farm Families in the 1980s
Mark Friedberger
The farm crisis of the 1980s quickly became a media event, with scenes depicted starkly in black and white on color TV. In this new book, using findings from interviews and participant observation, agricultural historian Mark Friedberger peels away the emotion and rhetoric of the "save the family farm" movement to provide a realistic picture of what happened in one important farm state.
