From the artisits' description:
"The book tells the story of a rural crossroads community and an adjacent family farm in Bath township, Freeborn County, Minnesota from the 1940s to the present. 80 acres of the family farm were lost to foreclosure in the 1980s. The book combines photography and oral history to explore memories of the area as it is and was. Accompanying quotations from other sources provide additional context on contemporary farm issues. Produced with a fellowship from the Jerome Foundation / Minneapolis Institute of Arts."
