From Prairie to Cornbelt The author describes this remarkable transformation and challenges the dominant view that the Civil War was followed by thirty years of agricultural depression. Instead, he argues, by the 1890's the work of the pioneers was done; their successors were moving forward into the golden age of Midwestern agriculture.
