Excerpt from The Farmstead, Vol. 2: The Making of the Rural Home and the Lay-Out of the Farm
Man is made partly by heredity, partly by environment; both may be controlled and modified to a far greater extent than is generally supposed. In speaking of farm life, its disadvantages are frequently emphasized, while its possible advantages as an environment for the development of the finest quality of human nature are as often ignored or overlooked.
Nature, with her ever-varying form and color, beauty and symmetry, is forgotten in the city; the shady forest, the meadow brook, the waving fields, are unknown.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book champions the potential of rural life, challenging the notion that farming is merely a means to an end. The author paints a vivid picture of the countryside as an ideal environment for fostering strong family bonds, physical health, and intellectual curiosity. Children raised on farms, the author argues, develop a unique understanding of the natural world and its governing principles. Set against the backdrop of a rapidly industrializing America, the author explores the economic viability of farming, emphasizing the importance of education and specialized knowledge in achieving success. The author advocates for a shift away from purely profit-driven agricultural practices towards a more sustainable and fulfilling approach to rural life. This book delves into topics such as land ownership, diversification of crops, and the balance between physical labor and intellectual engagement. The author's insights offer a compelling argument for the enduring value of rural communities and their contribution to the fabric of American society. The author's vision of rural life as a source of both prosperity and personal growth challenges readers to re-evaluate their understanding of success and happiness.
