Deep Furrows

"Deep Furrows" by Herbert Joseph Moorhouse is a story about the tough lives and big wins of farmers in Western Canada during the early 1900s, where they band together to fight unfair treatment. The book tells how these farmers created Grain Growers' Associations, showing their strength and teamwork against powerful businesses that were taking advantage of them. It starts by painting a picture of the beautiful but difficult Canadian prairies, focusing on one farmer's struggle to get his wheat to market while dealing with greedy companies and railroads. This farmer starts talking with another, and their shared frustration plants the seed for farmers to unite and stand up for what's right.
