{"product_id":"harvest-son-planting-roots-in-american-soil-9780393319743","title":"Harvest Son: Planting Roots in American Soil","description":"David Mas Masumoto, best-selling author of \u003cem\u003eEpitaph for a Peach\u003c\/em\u003e, returns to the same ground but digs even deeper in a new, \"more ambitious book\" in which \"he lets his philosophy about man and nature emerge from an absorbing chronicle of his life and that of his Japanese antecedents\" (\u003cem\u003eThe Economist\u003c\/em\u003e). This is a book about working alongside the ghosts of generations past, about the search for roots in the tragic history of internment camps and in the rural culture of Japan. It is equally about renewal-reinvigorating the farm with organic techniques, teaching his children how to carry on the work that eighty acres of peaches and grapes demand. Masumoto knits past and present to achieve a rare and essential harmony: holding on to what matters, despite the pressures of time and change. \"Take your time, linger\" with the book, counsels the \u003cem\u003eSan Diego Union-Tribune\u003c\/em\u003e, \"Masumoto's serene tales . . . are like a balm.\" He is a \"remarkable\" author, sums up \u003cem\u003eThe Atlantic\u003c\/em\u003e, \"with a field, and a sensibility, peculiarly his own.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e David Mas Masumoto\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e W.
