Books enable readers to broaden their lives, and this one—in which Marie Mutsuki Mockett joins a crew harvesting wheat—is a doozy, as Studs Terkel’s were. Who are they, what do they live for, what do they think? I never knew a person on a wheat-harvesting crew, and now I do, thanks to Mockett’s vivid and true account.

— Annie Dillard, author of Pilgrim at Tinker Creek
