We Gather Together

"Full of interesting stories, We Gather Together is a very entertaining read. It is also quietly subversive. Beneath the veil of gentle humor and the perceptive readings of paintings, the book carries an important message: at a time when global warming is endangering life on this planet, the book implores us to think more deeply about our fundamental relationship with the earth."--Henry Adams, author of Tom and Jack: The Intertwined Lives of Thomas Hart Benton and Jackson Pollock "Wide-ranging and wonderfully illustrated, Eldredge's book examines how farming once defined America's sense of self and collective purpose."--Erika Doss, author of Memorial Mania: Public Feeling in America
