Winner of the Minnesota Book Award and the Red River Heritage Award!The Haymakers is an epicthe history of mans struggle with nature as well as mans struggle against machines. It relates the story of farmers and their obligations to their families, to the animals they fed, and to the land they tended. But The Haymakersis also an elegyto a way of life fast disappearing from our landscape. In the most heartfelt essays, Hoffbeck chronicles his own familys struggle to hold onto their family farm and his personal struggle in deciding to leave farming for another way of life.Hoffbeck also seeks to document and preserve the commonplace methods of haymaking, information about haying that might otherwise be lost to posterity. He describes the tools and the methods of haymaking as well as the relentless demands of the farm. Using diaries, agricultural guidebooks and personal interviews, the folkways of cutting, raking, and harvesting hay have been recorded in these chapters. In the end, this book is not so much about agricultural history as it is about family history, personal historyhow farm families survive, even persevere.
