This book's publication in 1832 initiated an era of agricultural reform in the ante-bellum South. By 1850 Ruffin had effected a transformation of the economy of the upper South from poverty to agricultural prosperity. This small book, with its uncompromisingly descriptive title, is a landmark in the history of soil chemistry in the United States.
