Read the excerpt from “Land for Free.”“Tomorrow is a very important day for our family. As you know, the name Bauer is the German word for peasant. My father was a peasant, his father was a peasant, and so were all the fathers before that. We have never been land owners, and I think it’s time to change that fact, but, sadly, my injury prevents me from racing well. You, Johann, though still a boy, are the best man for the job.”
