description: A compilation of articles about one northeast Kansas county, selected from a popular column which has appeared in a local newspaper since 1977. Columnist Oretha Ruetti draws on old newspaper files, interviews, family histories and information from her many readers to document the history of Marshall County. The book is a sampler giving readers a sense of life as it used to be in a Midwest farming area, a way of life that will never be again, for the automobile, the mechanization of agriculture and population decline have changed this area forever.
