Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from In Sunflower Land: Stories of God´s Own Country Westward from the Mississippi, between the thirty-sixth and fortieth parallels of latitude, in the very heart of the greatest nation of the earth, lie two empires. Not empires, indeed, in the common significance of man´s imperial sway, with the gay gildings and trappings of the court, and the autocratic rule of royalty, but empires of nature, glorious in the results of a few brief years of experiment, more glorious in the incalculable possibilities of development awaiting the homeseeker. Wherever the traveler goes in these great empires, in wagon, boat or railway car, he sees the monarch of the realm, turn where he may. Far to the north and east, on through the south and west, this jolly monarch keeps at the side of the flying train, to the end of his dominions, where the roads begin to lead to the clouds and the cool air rushes down from the mountains. No traveler asks who this jolly monarch is. No man forgets his allegiance to powerful, affluent, smiling old King Corn.
