"This book is the first to provide a case study of a Vermont farm that existed from the early 1800s to the early 1900s. The farm made a distinctive contribution to the apple industry in Vermont with one of the largest orchards in New England and pioneered advanced orchard methods. The book makes an important contribution to the literature on the history of Vermont apple orchards. In addition, the farm was a leading breeder of trotters, horses with a Morgan horse heritage. The book examines the end of the farm due to foreclosure in 1923 and the resulting diaspora of the family and its transformation in a single generation. The author is a direct descendant of the Holmes family, which came to Vermont in the 1780s.
