Editorial Reviews
New York Times Book Review
"Along with the thoughtful approach to the larger issues of land use, Of Cabbages and Kings County works wonderfully as a text brimming with new insights about Brooklyn's development in the 19th century."
R. Douglas Hurt, Center for Agricultural History and Rural Studies, Iowa State University
"This book is based on superb research. It treats a heretofore unexplored subject in American agricultural history and makes an important contribution to American, agricultural, and New York history."
