This man never disappoints. Can you imagine being blessed enough to have Mr. Hanson as your teacher?
If you can't be forunate enough to have him as your teacher, you can read his books.
I recommend "FIELDS WITHOUT DREAMS : DEFENDING THE AGRARAIN IDEAL"...a very good book about his family's farming experiences in central California and the fundamentals of agrarian influence in shaping society.
Also, I recommend, "Carnage and Culture: Landmark Battles in the Rise of Western Power" Great book.
Cheers
