Automotive pioneer Charles Stewart Mott and his first wife, Ethel Culbert Harding Mott, purchased sixty-four acres at the edge of downtown Flint, Michigan, and laid the cornerstone in 1916 for the family home and gentleman's farm they called Applewood. This collection of stories of Applewood's first one hundred years reveals the private lives of a very public family, much told in their own words. The author weaves excerpts from decades of interviews, personal letters, and C. S. Mott's detailed diary, plus recollections from family, friends, and staff. More than 250 photos, both new and historical images from the Ruth Mott Foundation Archives, give an intimate look at an extraordinary family and the place they called home.

Rural issues are currently attracting unprecedented levels of interest, with the debates surrounding the future of 'traditional' rural customs and practice becoming a significant political concern. However, the problem of racism in rural areas has been largely overlooked by academics, practitioners and researchers who have sought almost exclusively to develop an understanding of racism in urban contexts. This book aims to address this oversight by examining notions of ethnic identity, 'otherness' and racist victimisation that have tended to be marginalised from traditional rural discourse.
