Book Description
Excerpt from Apples and Peaches in the Ozark Region The statistics in Table I are largely self-explanatory, as they plainly Show the numerical increases and decreases in the several periods to which they apply. The cause Of the decrease in the number Of apple trees in Missouri and Oklahoma in the decade from 1900 to 1910 will become apparent in the discussions which follow; but the figures relating to Missouri apparently do not Show the full extent Of the decrease, as it is commonly said that for several years following 1900 the planting Of fruit trees, especially apple trees, was fully as rapid as at any previous period. The statistics for 1900, therefore, do not Show the maximum number Of' trees Of bearing age which existed in the Missouri portion Of the Ozarks during the decade follow ing the Twelfth Census. It would perhaps be difficult to ascribe to definite influences the rapid expansion Of fruit culture in this region, especially in Missouri and Arkansas, during the period from 1890 to 1900. Without doubt, however, an influence which contributed largely to the early impetus in the planting Of apples was the very satisfactory prices Obtained in the late eighties for the abundant crops produced on the comparatively small number Of trees then in bearing. This Was a period when there were relatively light crops Of fruit in the Older apple-producing sections Oi-the East. Once given the impetus, the rapid growth is not difficult to explain. During the years Of most rapid development the fruit-growing possibilities of the Ozark region were widely advertised, not only - ih this country but also abroad.

Book Description
The Ozark Mountains reach into Missouri, Arkansas, Oklahoma, and Kansas, forming a region with great natural beauty and a distinctive cultural and historical landscape. This comprehensive volume, a fully updated edition of a beloved classic, reaches into history, anthropology, economics, and geography to explore the complex relationships between the Ozarks' people and land through times of profound change. Drawing on more than thirty years of research, field observations, and interviews, Rafferty examines this subject matter through a range of topics: the settlement patterns and material cultures of Native Americans, French, Scotch-Irish, Germans, Italians, African Americans, Hispanics, and Asians in the region; population growth; the guerrilla warfare and battles of the Civil War; the cultural transformations wrought by railroads, roads, mass media, and modern communication systems; the discovery, development, and decline of the great mining districts; the various forms of agriculture and the felling of the region's vast forests; and the built landscape, from log cabins to Victorian mansions to strip malls. This new edition also explores the new and potent forces which have reshaped the region over the last twenty years: tourism and the growing service industry, suburbanization, rapid population growth and retirement living, and agribusiness. Lavishly illustrated with historic and contemporary photographs, maps, and charts.
