The chorus of voices celebrating traditional and sustainable agriculture have become louder recently but few tell a story as simply as this one written in the early 1990s. Compare the emerald hills of Peru, the laughing potato farmers with kids in tow to the gas masks and dusty deserts of industrial farms. It's a pretty stark contrast. The text is broken akwardly in places by the photographs, but overall a lush pictoral account of farmers' real lives.
