VDH UltraHow the Old Breed Made a Raisin. Part Three

Victor Davis Hanson As I said, I was a good picker but a lousy farmer inspector. Whether I yelled at the offender depended on whether he was young, male, and a gang banger (yes, demand a good job), or old, tired, and trying (no, let him pass). At ten I once said to my grandfather […]

America Delira

Victor Davis Hanson American Greatness Travel abroad and or talk to pro-American foreigners here, and you will be surprised at what they say.

VDH UltraHow the Old Breed Made a Raisin. Part One

Victor Davis Hanson Raisins are dried grapes. For 100 years, Sun-Maid Raisins, the local co-op, insisted on dried Thompson seedless grapes, the green, seedless grapes you saw once in the store fresh (though in their natural smaller state, without being pumped up from the effects of gibberellic acid, stump and cane girdling, and weekly irrigation

No sheriff, no county inspector, no building inspector dares to set foot on these old homesteads of now dead farmers. They
