This book is the author's memoir of his experiences with life on a small farm located in the Catskill mountains of New York State for a period of seventy odd years. It describes one farmer in particular who coped with farming on picturesque but rough and hilly land. It covers the period of transition from oxen to horse and to tractor and this way of life's final years. It reached both its zenith and its nadir during this time. While farming has all but disappeared from this area, the author attempts to recreate for the reader the way of life from memory. Through his own eyes and those of his mentors and accompanying photos we witness a period of over one hundred years, gone but not forgotten.
