Why Farm: Selected Essays and Editorials

By L.R. Miller and Lynn R. Miller

Small Farmer's Journal is after a new view of involvement, ownership, craftsmanship, and the understandable/mysterious seeds of magic. They also seek the craft of good farming and the faith that comes of thankful farming. Small Farmer's Journal wants to be defenders and agents of and for good farming and they realize that they are a small endeavor with small consequences.In 1976, Lynn R. Miller conceived of the idea of Small Farmer's Journal and went to work as its part-time editor (until a legitimate professional could be found). Twenty-five years later, he's still in the editor's box writing essays and editorials, both scathing and pensive, which have, in their raw storytelling form, met with warm approval by thousands of Small Farmer's Journal readers. In this book, Miller has updated and reworked a compilation of his early editorials and essays. This may be an important book on modern agrarian actualities and possibilities by a man who is fond of being called a muckraker for all of its fertile connotations.
