Horace Greeley told young men to go west and farm, then wrote down what he had learned trying it himself. Ranging over soils, crops, tools, and the dream of a steam plow, the famous editor offers opinionated, energetic advice on American agriculture. Part practical, part visionary. Farming wisdom from the most quotable newspaperman of his age.
Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
