Book Description
Daniel S. Bietz was born in 1878 in the Ukraine. He immigrated to North Dakota with his parents when he was fifteen. He married Christina Unterseher. She and her family were also immigrants from the Ukraine. Daniel, Christina and their nine children lived on a 640-acre farm called the Happy Home Farm. It was located 75 miles south of the Canadian border and 9 miles southeast of Bowden, North Dakota. The family became Seventh-day Adventists. The children attended church schools and one of the sons became a pastor. This is an account of the family's history and life on the farm.

Book Description
Building on their analysis in Sociology in Government (Penn State, 2003), Julie Zimmerman and Olaf Larson again join forces across the generations to explore the unexpected inclusion of rural and farm women in the research conducted by the USDA’s Division of Farm Population and Rural Life. Existing from 1919 to 1953, the Division was the first, and for a time the only, unit of the federal government devoted to sociological research. The authors explore how these early rural sociologists found the conceptual space to include women in their analyses of farm living, rural community social organization, and the agricultural labor force.

Book Description
Many of us grew up hearing our parents exclaim 'you are driving me to the poorhouse!' or remember the card in the Monopoly game which says 'Go to the Poorhouse! Lose a Turn!' Yet most Americans know little or nothing of this institution that existed under a variety of names for approximately three hundred years of American history. Exploring the history of the 'inmates' as well as staff and officials in New England, this book connects contemporary times to the 'poorhouse' history as the homeless shelter, jail, prison, and other institutions again hold millions of poor people under institutional care, sometimes in the very same structures that were poorhouses.
