A Farmer's (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book takes readers on a journey through the Netherlands in 1873, where the author, who had encountered varied societies throughout the US and Europe, was still fascinated by the unique culture and remarkable history of the Dutch. The author was particularly impressed by the Dutch mastery of water management and land reclamation, which had transformed the country from a swampy, low-lying region into a productive and prosperous agricultural heartland. The book explores the engineering marvels of canals and windmills, which free the Dutch from the rule of the sea and allow them to reclaim land for human use. The Dutch spirit of innovation is further exemplified in the cheese industry, where the author witnesses the production and sale of massive quantities of cannonball-shaped cheeses in the Beemster polder, renowned as one of the world's richest dairy regions. The book not only provides historical context but also immerses the reader in the daily life and customs of Dutch society, offering insights into their farming practices, dress, and even their predilection for gin and sugar as a prophylactic.
