Based on six years of extended ethnography in multiple agricultural areas of the Eastern United States, Down Country Lanes, Behind Abandoned Houses is a monograph which explores the lives of migrant and seasonal farm workers. The six-year study secured multi-setting field data in primary, secondary and casual sites, and audio-taped narrative life stories from men and women who harvest and perform the related tasks that help to make the many foods which we enjoy in abundance. The study presented in this book elaborates vignettes from field observations with a focus on workers who use drugs and alcohol, and is complemented by formal (narrative life stories) and informal interviews. The author explores diverse field data that reveal the hardships, exclusion and social adversities that migrant farm workers experience many times more often than any other social group with considerable susceptibility to drug / alcohol use. Down Country Lanes, Behind Abandoned Houses gives readers a perspective about farm workers’ social vulnerability across multiple agricultural areas, while comparing willful neglect and social non-existence experienced by farm workers to a gray zone of contemporary horrors in the way that these men and women have been viewed and treated over many decades. The monograph is an invaluable reference for the study of social problems, substance abuse, trans-national migratory experiences and field methods in sociology. The book also serves as a contemporary handbook on the anthropology of American agricultural labor.
A true story of life as a child during the Second World War and through adolescence and teenage years in the 1950s and early 1960s. A time of worry and fear for parents, but of excitement and adventure for children. The freedom to roam and fanaticise without supervision and learning from real life experiences. Near misses which today would be considered unbelievably neglectful and dangerous. Working on the farm at fourteen. Joining the army cadets at thirteen to learn to be a soldier and going to summer camp to fire blank bullets from a .303 rifle at your mates was all good fun. On the downside, it was a time when waiting for your call-up papers at eighteen was routine. Then having to drop whatever you were doing to spend two years in the army, training as a real soldier in West Germany, or some other far away commonwealth outpost, and finally, to be demobbed as a disciplined but totally different person. All indications that at the time, you did what was required of you without fear or favour.
“The victims weren’t random. These weren’t crimes of opportunity. The kids were chosen. Chloe was chosen.” Tim McAndrews, a top prosecutor in Seattle, knows a self-defense shooting has unjustly tarnished his near-perfect conviction record. Because of it, he fears his career as an assistant district attorney is doomed to go nowhere. But legendary FBI Profiler Elias Cain has offered Tim a job with his team. So as he weighs his options for the future, Tim takes a much-needed ski vacation with his wife and friends to Schweitzer Mountain Ski Resort. A young girl is abducted in front of the resort, and Tim is drawn into the intrigue. When at the Sheriff’s Office, he runs into Elias Cain and learns this girl isn’t the only child in danger. The rainbow-colored duct tape Tim found in the snow may be the one clue that ties many child kidnapping cases together. The Seattle DA agrees to loan Tim to the FBI and Elias Cain’s profiling team. As their investigation unfolds, they realize they are chasing down a child trafficking ring that’s like an octopus with tentacles reaching everywhere. To take down this monster, Tim must put his life on the line.
