The Story of Extension is a historical account of the development of the extension service in the United States. Written by Francis Clement Kelley and first published in 1922, the book traces the origins of the extension movement back to the late 19th century and the efforts of educators and agriculturalists to bring the latest scientific knowledge to farmers and rural communities. Kelley describes the role of the land-grant universities in this movement, as well as the establishment of county extension offices and the work of extension agents in providing education and outreach to farmers and their families. The book also covers the expansion of the extension service into areas such as home economics, 4-H youth programs, and community development. Overall, The Story of Extension provides a comprehensive overview of a crucial aspect of American agricultural and social history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
