Reviews
"Bauer weaves together disparate tales and recollections from his childhood into a detailed and entertaining memoir of the rise and fall of a distinct and often rewarding rural culturein northeast Kansas."Agricultural History A moving and meditative account that depicts a century of struggle, survival, and demise. The coming-of-age memoir, set from the 1930s to the 1950s, blends local history with personal reflection to paint a realistic picture of farm life and families.Topeka Capital-Journal A look back at a way of life that has all but disappeared. The author grew up on a 160-acre farm in Clay County, went to a one-room schoolhouse and lived through the Depression. The book contains Bauers own reminiscences mixed in with history. For example, he talks about water: how his family used cistern water and well water, how snakes rested in the cistern overflow in the summer, how water was raised in clanking tin cups. Then he describes the importance of water to pioneer families, how wells were sited (sometimes by water witchers with divining rods) and dug, and how, later, wells were drilled and windmills were used to bring up water. Readers with an interest in Kansas history and agriculture, as well as rural daily life in the 1930s50s, will find this book accessible and illuminating.Wichita Eage, "A thoughtful first-person account of growing up in rural Kansas not so long ago, in the 1940s and 1950s, in a time and place on the verge of unimaginable change. Childhoods like Bauer's are increasingly rare. That's why an honest account of that world, not one seen through the sepia-tinted glasses of nostalgia, is so important. Bauer cares enough about a long-ago time and place to get the story right."- Rex Buchanan , Kansas NPR "Bauer's work is very reminiscent of the classic Sod and Stubble. Descriptive and reflective, it leaves us with the powerful sense that something significant happened. I like it a lot."- Thomas D. Isern , author of Dakota Circle: Excursions on the True Plains, "Bauer weaves together disparate tales and recollections from his childhood into a detailed and entertaining memoir of the rise and fall of 'a distinct and often rewarding rural culture' in northeast Kansas."-- Agricultural History "A moving and meditative account that depicts a century of struggle, survival, and demise.
