First line

IN 1878, the enterprising Luther and Elizabeth Tibbets saw their dream come to fruition: two ripe oranges dangled from trees in front of their Riverside home.

From the rear cover

"Douglas Sackman peels an orange and finds inside nothing less than an American agricultural-industrial culture in all its inventive, exploitative, transformative, and destructive power. A beautifully researched and intellectually expansive book."--Elliott West, author of The Contested Plains: Indians, Goldseekers, & the Rush to Colorado
