Inhaltsangabe
Reflecting on changes in agrarian landscapes and aesthetics he has witnessed since the 1960s, Richard Scheuerman reaches back to influences from his first-generation immigrant ancestors-whom he extensively recorded-who had settled in rural districts over the previous century. Scheuerman discusses works by contemporary artists and authors celebrating agrarianism as a threatened way of life, and upon which humanity's wellbeing depends, and writes of farmers and inventors devoted to crop improvement. Harvest Horizons weaves together the author's life experiences from rural youth and student to educator and world traveler, that have resulted in a deep-seated passion for the importance of farming and for the works of those who continue to record its story in art and literature. In Horizons we are given the means, through a focused agrarian lens, to see the eloquent result.
