Description: Women were not invented until the 1950s. Or so it seems to the archival reader, searching for accounts of early farm women. Primary sources, however, reveal a different picture. At the heart of every successful farm was a woman. In this unique history, Margaret Coleman explores women farmers in Montgomery County, Maryland, from the early days to the present.
