Produktbeschreibung
Deep furrows offers a compelling portrayal of the endurance and unity of Western Canadian farmers as they confront the social and economic challenges of early agricultural life. Set against the vast prairies, the narrative details the emergence of cooperative movements that sought to protect individual farmers from the injustices of monopolized markets and exploitative transportation systems. The story begins with a lone farmer journeying across open fields, weighed down by both physical hardship and the realization of systemic inequity. His encounter with another farmer marks the beginning of collective awareness - a recognition that solidarity is the only path toward change. Through these early conversations, the narrative captures the growing spirit of cooperation and rebellion that would define the agricultural reform movement. Blending personal reflection with historical documentation, the book examines the transformation of isolated laborers into a unified community. Deep furrows becomes not just a chronicle of economic resistance but a tribute to perseverance, illustrating how shared purpose can reshape both livelihood and identity on the rugged frontier.
