Duffield (whose grandson Phil Stong, also here with a story about the Iowa State Fair, wrote some forty novels set in Iowa)., Hamlin Garland, Herbert Quick, Charlton Laird, MacKinlay Kantor and others; its farm traditions are represented with farm poems by James Hearst, with an essay by merle Miller on a Hardin County farm farm family, a story by Father Leo Ward about a rural Monroe county couple, and by an article about a Mitchell County farm family that defied the Truman administration.
