Back on the Farm
Back on the Farm is the first collection of columns Eric has published in six years. The 296-page book contains over 130 of the most popular columns Bergeson has written over the past five years.
If you can't laugh at yourself somewhere in this book, you should probably check your pulse. Uff da!

Off the Farm
Off the Farm is a collection of essays which originally appeared as newspaper columns from 2001-2003. Eric Bergeson lives and works in the Minnesota countryside. In this, his third book, he focuses on ventures away from home, from travels to places as far-flung as London, Paris, Summerhaven, AZ, New York City, or the skies over Greenland, down to seemingly simple trips to town for a meeting or a half-gallon of milk.
Most sequels are flat-out disappointing. Not so with Off the Farm. if you enjoyed the wit and wisdom of Bergeson's previous two books, these tales of Eric's adventures are sure to delight. Relax, get comfortable, you're about to travel Off the Farm."
—Ross Pfund, Publisher, Norman County Index, Ada, MN
Still on the Farm
Still on the Farm is a collection of essays which originally appeared as newspaper columns from 1999-2001. In this his second book, Bergeson ranges from sharp satire about present stupidities to nostalgic reminiscences about the disappearing rural way of life.
For those who have never had the pleasure, Bergeson's work offers a sometimes biting, sometimes reverent, but almost always humorous introduction to life in rural America."
—Brent Sedo, Editor, REALM Magazine, Vancouver, B.C. Canada
Down on the Farm
Down on the Farm, Eric Bergeson's first book, is a collection of essays which originally appeared as newspaper columns from 1994-1995. Bergeson takes innumerable pot shots at small town conventions and culture. The final chapter describes what he saw on his brief stint as a page for the Minnesota State House of Representatives.
Quite possibly the best book to come out of Norman County this year.
—Mark Aakhus, Professor of Communications, Rutgers University
