Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book surveys agricultural conditions present in each of Connecticut's eight counties. The author does this by showcasing the works of Extension Service agents and relates those efforts to the changes affecting their respective county's agricultural landscape over a period of 20 years from 1918 to 1938. The accounts from each county agent provide a timely glimpse into the lives of farmers and their families living and working during and after World War I through the onset of the Great Depression. The author provides an extensive background on each county and its agricultural sector, providing a valuable snapshot of the people, economy, and opportunities for farming throughout the state during a time of great economic change. The work concludes with reflections from the author regarding the challenges and successes of the Extension Service in reaching varying populations and adapting strategies to help them flourish amidst a dynamic period in agricultural history.
