Title: Survival of Rural America: Small Victories and Bitter Harvests
Author: Richard E. Wood

Summary:
Author Wood explores what it means to live in rural America, notably Kansas, today. Expecting to see the decline of a once-vibrant life, he instead finds that many towns are still thriving, but in ways very different than they had in the past. A look at the evolution needed for the continuance of this lifestyle, Wood paints evocative pictures of the towns and people he meets in his travels.
