This unconventional history relates the engaging and unusual stories of three families in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries whose involvement in the peppermint oil industry provides insights into the perspectives and concerns of rural people of their time. Challenging the standard paradigms, historian Dan Allosso focuses on the rural characters who lived by their own rules and did not acquiesce to contemporary religious doctrines, business mores, and political expediencies. 410 0$aYale agrarian studies series. 410 0$aYale scholarship online. 606 $aPeppermint industry$zUnited States$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aAgriculture$zUnited States$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aFarm life$zUnited States$xHistory$y19th century 607 $aUnited States$xRural conditions 608 $aHistory.$2fast 615 0$aPeppermint industry$xHistory 615 0$aAgriculture$xHistory 615 0$aFarm life$xHistory 676 $a338.47661806095 700 $aAllosso$b Dan$01537215 801 0$bStDuBDS 801 1$bStDuBDS 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910794016503321 996 $aPeppermint kings$93786403 997 $aUNINA
