Description
A thorough elaboration on the growing and trading of hops in Washington, U.S. in the late 19th century, this book focuses on the practice from the point of view of an experienced farmer. Although certainly containing a vast amount of information for any grower, the author of this piece states that his intentions are not necessarily to prompt others into the trade, but rather to guide current or beginning farmers to "avoid the mistakes of the early pioneers" of hop production. He posits that if the quality of practice and produce is raised in America that the export trade and overall economy could improve as a result, rivaling the markets of other hop-producing countries.
