The Peterson family farm is one hundred years old and about to enter a new century. Here, in wonderful family anecdotes, the author shares the story of the farm as it grew from a barn and house and granary in the 1890s to a thriving dairy farm in the 1990s. There has been plenty of hard work--sawing down the trees to erect the first buildings, the endless cycle of planting and harvesting, chopping firewood to keep the house warm--but there has also been golf practice on the pasture land, Sunday drives in the family car, and cross-country skiing in the meadows. Over the past hundred years many things on the farm have changed, but many things have stayed the same. There is still one family working together to make the farm a viable business. There is still one kitchen where cookies are baked and meals are cooked to feed family and friends and those who help on the farm. Filled with photos selected from a century's worth of family albums as well as dramatic shots from recent years, this NCSS/CBC Notable Social Studies Trade Book provides a glimpse into the past and the future of one American family farm.

High Plains Homestead spans more than a century as it follows four generations of the Crawford family, their farm which was designated a 'Century Farm' in 2001, and the local community, shedding light on what it meant to become a 'Century Farm'. A Century Farm is a farm or ranch in the United States or Canada that has been officially recognized by a regional program documenting the farm has been continuously owned by a single family for 100 years or more. The sequence of events draws on the experiences of the family from their 1879 homestead to the present day to illustrate the evolution of farming on the High Plains of Kansas. An integration of personal anecdotes with meticulous research describes how the weather, the mechanization of farm equipment, the transition from horse-power to tractor-power, two world wars, the Great Depression, the ensuing Dust Bowl, government farm programs, and the changing economics of farming all influenced the nature of High Plains farming. The Crawfords and their farm did not exist in a vacuum. They were an integral part of a rural community and the small towns of Luray and Waldo where they did their shopping, sold their grain, and sent their children to school. They were involved in the churches, clubs, civic efforts, and school activities in Luray, which they considered to be their home town. That rural community and associated small towns were a part of and surrounded by the Great Plains, and as such shared experiences with most of the rest of Kansas and the surrounding states, including blizzards and droughts of historical severity.The book follows generations of the Crawford family and traces the rise and subsequent decline of the rural community in which they lived as they experienced the enormous changes that occurred as the country transitioned from a mostly rural nation to a mostly urban one.The narrative concludes with a thought-provoking discussion of the future of rural communities, the options for farmers, and High Plains farming.

This accessible book is a powerful critique of the effectiveness of development aid. It skilfully combines a wealth of practical experience with a thorough examination of recent academic research. It will certainly challenge the defenders of aid to rethink their position for the twenty-first century. John Toye, Department of Economics, Oxford, UK This is an excellent book; interesting and extremely well written. It offers a masterly survey of existing work in the field and will have a wide appeal amongst policymakers and academic economists with an interest in development. A.P. Thirlwall University of Kent, Canterbury, UK This book makes a significant contribution by examining an important issue, namely, the effects of foreign aid on development. The author provides an insightful critical review of the relevant academic literature, and presents a careful evaluation of recent foreign aid initiatives and approaches. The reader is struck by the author s painstaking and wide-ranging research on the subject, interspersed with thoughtful comments based on his own experiences. Scholars and practitioners working on development will find much that is insightful, informative, provocative and stimulating. Amitava Krishna Dutt, University of Notre Dame, US In spite of massive flows over the past 50 years, aid has failed to have any significant impact on development. Marginalization from the world economy and increases in absolute poverty are causing countries to degenerate into failed, oppressive and, in some cases, dangerous states. To address this malaise, Ashok Chakravarti argues that there should be more recognition of the role economic and political governance can play in achieving positive and sustainable development outcomes. Using the latest empirical findings on aid and growth, this book reveals how good governance can be achieved by radically restructuring the international aid architecture. This can be realised if the governments of donor nations and international financial institutions refocus their aid programs away from the transfer of resources and so-called poverty reduction measures, and instead play a more forceful role in the developing world to achieve the necessary political and institutional reform. Only in this way can aid become an effective instrument of growth and poverty reduction in the 21st century. Aid, Institutions and Development presents a new, thoroughly critical and holistic perspective on this topical and problematic subject. Academics and researchers in development economics, policymakers, NGOs, aid managers and informed readers will all find much to challenge and engage them within this book.
