Arthur Zeman was a third generation Iowan whose grandfather emigrated from Czechoslavakia in 1865. He was a hard working farmer who was constantly looking for ways to improve farm efficiency. Taking care of the soil and the environment was always a primary concern. He was a man ahead of his time technologically. This book is a saga not only of a man and his family, but also of a people who transformed America's heartland into one of the greatest "bread baskets" in the nation. This is a story about family, neighbors, and community in central Iowa who not only survived frigid blizzards in the winter but also the drying winds and droughts or soaking floods of summer. Still, they trusted God to pull them through and He built their faith, which they demonstrated to their children. Arthur Zeman was a man of faith and of action- a servant to his community, church, neighbors, and a husband and father and the kind of man that America needs today. For those who have roots in the American heartland, this book is for you. If your roots are in the heartland of America, you will find this book a must read
