"The Rural Life Problem of the United States" is a treatise on rural life in the United States by an Irish-American researcher and former Member of Parliament, Sir Horace Curzon Plunkett. He looks at rural life there, the economic activities people are likely to engage in there, mostly farming and small businesses. Using his home country of Ireland as a basis for comparison, Plunkett strives to bring out the challenges that the rural dwellers encounter in both countries, made more pronounced by what he sees as a lower allocation of resources compared to the cities.
