He was barely retired from farming for more than half a century, mostly in the Missouri Bootheel, or "Swampeast Missouri," as he called it. Now back in print with a new introduction by historian Bonnie Stepenoff, these sketches of a life, a region, and an era will delight readers new to this distinctive American voice as well as readers already familiar with this masterpiece of the American Midwest. Snow purchased a thousand acres of southeast Missouri swampland in 1910, cleared it, drained it, and eventually planted it in cotton. Although he employed sharecroppers, he grew to become a bitter critic of the labor system after a massive flood and the Great Depression worsened conditions for these already-burdened workers. Shocking his fellow landowners, Snow invited the Southern Tenant Farmers Union to organize the workers on his land. He was even once accused of fomenting a strike and publicly threatened with horsewhipping. Snow's admiration for Owen Whitfield, the African American leader of the Sharecroppers' Roadside Demonstration, convinced him that nonviolent resistance could defeat injustice. Snow embraced pacifism wholeheartedly and denounced all war as evil even as America mobilized for World War II after the attack on Pearl Harbor. In the late 1940's and early 1950's, he became involved with creating Missouri's conservation movement. Near the end of his life, he found a retreat in the Missouri Ozarks, where he wrote this recollection of his life. This unique and honest series of personal essays expresses the thoughts of a farmer, a hunter, a husband, a father and grandfather, a man with a soft spot for mules and dogs and all kinds of people. Snow's prose reveals much about a way of life in the region during the first half of the twentieth century, as well as the social and political events that affected the entire nation. Whether arguing that a good stock dog should be left alone to do its work, explaining the process of making swampland suitable for agriculture, or putting forth his case for world peace, Snow's ideas have a special authenticity because they did not come from an ivory tower or a think tank--they came From Missouri . 606 $aFarmers$xBiography 606 $aFarmers$zMissouri$xBiography 607 $aMissouri$xSocial life and customs$y20th century 607 $aMissouri$xSocial conditions$y20th century 615 0$aFarmers$xBiography. 615 0$aFarmers$xBiography. 676 $a630.92 700 $aSnow$b Thad$f1881-1954.$01461966 701 $aStepenoff$b Bonnie$f1949-$01113323 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910779538503321 996 $aFrom Missouri$93670816 997 $aUNINA LEADER 02803nam 2200745 a 450 001 9910821610003321 005 20240516163159.0 010 $a9786613642592 010 $a9783527645848 010 $a3527645845 010 $a9781280665660 010 $a1280665661 010 $a9783527645855 010 $a3527645853 010 $a9783527645824 010 $a3527645829 035 $a(CKB)3190000000022661 035 $a(EBL)915870 035 $a(OCoLC)793104042 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000657672 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11349505 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000657672 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10680523 035 $a(PQKB)11545704 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC915870 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL915870 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10565151 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL364259 035 $a(Perlego)1014220 035 $a(EXLCZ)993190000000022661 100 $a20120613d2012 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aNew strategies in chemical synthesis and catalysis /$fedited by Bruno Pignataro 205 $a1st ed. 210 $aWeinheim $cWiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
