American Harvest by Thomas Mockett
God, Country, and Farming in the Heartland
Following a crew of custom wheat harvesters on their seasonal journey from Texas to the Dakotas, the narrator witnesses the grueling realities and quiet beauty of modern agriculture while probing the cultural, religious, and political fault lines that define the rural–urban divide; through roadside churches, prairie storms, and long days in the combines, she grapples with questions of faith, science, and food production, finding unexpected fellowship and a more nuanced understanding of the people who grow the nation’s bread.
