| Abstract | "American writers turned to the georgic mode-an ancient literary tradition focused on the human relationship with the land-in order to explore key questions about land use that emerged during the twentieth century. This book examines the work of writers who labored to see rural places and rural people clearly, and represent them accurately"-- Provided by publisher. |
