This bibliography was compiled to help those wanting information about the rural community--its organization, functions, and programs. It is designed to be a useful aid to extension workers, agricultural teachers, researchers, and all those interested in community improvement. Because of the great number of references, selection was based on those published in the United States since 1935 and dealing primarily with community-initiated programs and community-centered organizations and institutions.

Between 1900 and 1940 American family farming gave way to what came to be called agribusiness. Government policies, consumer goods aimed at rural markets, and the increasing consolidation of agricultural industries all combined to bring about changes in farming strategies that had been in use since the frontier era. Because the Midwestern farm economy played an important part in the relations of family and community, new approaches to farm production meant new patterns in interpersonal relations as well. In Preserving the Family Farm Mary Neth focuses on these relations--of gender and community--to shed new light on the events of this crucial period. (source: 4e de couverture).
