Hoosier farming was an inter-dependent activity leading to a society of borrowing and loaning. The interactions of farmers were replete with penalties for those who didn't help each other with certain task. This book examines this ""independence"" and finds the portrayal to be less than adequate.
Indiana's pioneers came to southern Indiana to turn the dream of an America based on family farming into a reality. The golden age prior to the Civil War led to a post-War preserving of the independent family farmer. Salstrom examines this
independenceand finds the label to be less than adequate. Hoosier farming was an inter-dependent activity leading to a society of borrowing andloaning. When people talk about supporting family farming, as Salstrom notes, the issue is a societal one with a greater population involved than just the farmers themselves.
