Oceans of Grain: How American Wheat Remade the World

byScott Reynolds Nelson

Focused on how American Wheat Remade the World, Oceans of Grain brings Scott Reynolds Nelson's historical account to a complex and consequential subject. The book builds its explanation through key episodes, competing interests, and the setting supplied by the connected fields of business & economics and history. The result avoids a single easy lesson, emphasizing instead how circumstances, institutions, and individual choices interacted over time. Readers finish with a sharper understanding of the subject and why its consequences still deserve attention.
