Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the complex and fascinating story of farm land ownership in the United States. The author examines the evolution of land ownership patterns from the days of westward expansion and the homesteading era to the mid-twentieth century, exploring how federal policies like the Homestead Act and state initiatives shaped the landscape of land ownership.
