“On living historical farms men farm as they once did during some specific time in the past. The farms have tools and equipment like those once used, and they raise the same types of livestock and plants used during the specified era. The operations are carried on in the presence of visitors.”    --  John T. Schlebecker and Gale E. Peterson, Living Historical Farms Handbook (1972), 1
