Beginning in 1820, settlers broke the tall grass prairies of
mid-America. By the 1870s they had begun to use the term "Corn
Belt" to describe much of the region. In From Prairie to Corn Belt,
Allan G. Bogue chronicles this remarkable transformation and
challenges the view that the post Civil War period constituted
thirty years of unrelieved agricultural depression. His book
remains the only study of Midwestern agricultural development that
focuses on the farmers themselves, the entire range of production
problems they had to solve on their land, and the diversity of
their responses.
