Years of Struggle: The Farm Diary of Elmer G. Powers, 1931-1936

Elmer G. Powers and his family managed to survive the Depression, in part because Quietdale Farm is located on rich land in Boone County, Iowa. The problems he confronted--collapsing markets, drought, and sometimes misdirected governmental efforts--were felt by countless others, many of whom lost their farms. First published in 1976 and now revised and reissued with a new introduction by Katherine Jellison, "Years of Struggle" documents one farmer's experiences during a period of national upheaval.Grant, H. Roger is the author of 'Years of Struggle: The Farm Diary of Elmer G. Powers, 1931-1936' with ISBN 9780813805993 and ISBN 0813805996.
