  • Summary

    The Introduction indicates that the book explains how and why aspects of agriculture in the Great Plains of the United States have, perhaps unexpected, roots in the steppes of the Russian Empire/Soviet Union. It introduces the environments and environmental histories of the two regions and the transfers of crops, agricultural sciences, and techniques from the steppes to the Great Plains that are analyzed in the main part of the book. It outlines the book’s sources and methodology and its contribution to the historiography.
