A decade of negro extension work, 1914-1924
Oscar Baker Martin
In ten years, a scattered corps of county agents built farm clubs, cooperative buying, and better yields across the rural South. Oscar Martin records the growth of Negro extension work from 1914 to 1924: its early history, its finances, its personnel, and its cooperation with other agencies. A ground-level account of how practical farm knowledge spread family to family. Read the record of a quiet agricultural revolution.
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.
