If you love stories about one person who just can’t be told to give up, you’re going to want to pick up *Plowing on Sunday* by Sterling North. Set in the Wisconsin of the late 1910s, it’s a kind of true-life Great Debate: one stubborn dairy farmer versus a whole crowd of city folks, local laws, economic blues, and even a global war that threw agriculture into chaos. Myrmidon Hardy might be today's ideal independent person—back then he was just the Dutchman who did everything on his knees, getting nailed from all sides. The big battle in *Plowing on Sunday* is starting out as rich as could be, losing almost everything because prices for milk and butter crashes and a small inherited newspaper gives him a mighty headache. For the unknown fact swirling around deep days: was North really signing in where city inspectors said dumb laws during the Progressive Era pushed a once-pioneer state? Read this. Like most small-town underdog champions chased by jealous neighbors and bone-deep economic tough-luck, only one move somehow picks from the boiling pit left almost sure must be to a soldier killed or struck abroad. And the painful jokes? Here you get clear paragraphs how he mixed sweat on his fields plus pens to bring alive what got gut-shot or went entirely secret. True human-mind courage stuck between wise brains versus screaming common.
