Food and Everyday Life on Kentucky Family Farms, 1920-1950 (Kentucky Remembered: An Oral History Series) (Kentucky Remembered: An Oral History Series)

Based on interviews conducted by the University of Kentucky's Family Farm Project and supplemented by archival research, photographs, and recipes, "Food and Everyday Life on Kentucky Family Farms, 1920-1950", recalls a vanishing way of life in rural Kentucky. John van Willigen and Anne van Willigen illuminate how the revolutionary change from subsistence to market-based agricultural production, prompted by economic stresses and government policy, altered not only the production, preparation, and consumption of food in Kentucky, but the social relations within the state's rural communities.
