Willard Scott,

“Paul’s presentation will leave your group uplifted, with a renewed belief in family, friends and connection. Be prepared to laugh and cry!”


Texas Land Title Association

“Today’s farmer or rancher may be on his laptop using his handheld GPS, but he’s still out there with his hands in the soil. As you turn the pages of the book, you can almost see into the soul of those photographed. At a time when agriculture is very high-tech and modern, AMERICAN FARMER, conveys through Paul Mobley’s photographic artistry the distinctive spirit and traditional values of hard-working American farmers and ranchers.”

Kevin Rogers,
Arizona Farm Bureau President

“Paul Mobley started out looking to take some great portraits of farmers and ranchers and captured so much more in his travels through rural America. His photographs depict American agriculture’s recent past, its present and its future, often in the same photograph. And more poignantly, for urban folks, he put a face on the men and women whose love for the land runs deep, and who toil every day to feed their fellow citizens.”

Bob Stallman,
President of the American Farm Bureau Federation

“We had a great event and Paul was by far the star. His presentation really moved a lot of the audience as they could undoubtedly relate to the stories he told about his journey across the American farmland. He even managed to bring tears to a couple of the audience members. I heard nothing but great accolades for Paul for the rest of the day and evening on Saturday.  A great find for sure.”


Will O.,

“American Farmer is a richly layered mosaic of brilliant visuals and honest text that honors the farmers and ranchers across America. The combination is breathtaking.”

ForeWord Magazine

“Simply Stunning!”

Kansas City Star

“Paul is AMAZING! We had tears, we had laughter and everyone left with huge smiles. One of our attendees was IN THE BOOK! I will always recommend Paul for our events in the future.”


Rachel C., Corteva Agriscience

“A masterpiece of a book! The pictures are uncannily good, as is the narrative of spoken words from the farmers photographed. This book will get you thinking about what’s left that’s good about America, and what is precious about human beings.”

Clyde Ederton,
author of The Bible Salesman

“I heard Paul speak in Wasco, Oregon at our wheat co-op dinner. I was tired… It had been a long day…and didn’t know what to expect from the speaker. Some years are, frankly, not so great. When Paul told us what we were going to see for the next hour, I almost groaned. Hour? Seriously? And then he started his talk. It was so good that, at the end of the hour,  I didn’t want him to stop. I tried to tell my girlfriend (We’re at a writer’s retreat) how he held everyone’s attention, but it is hard to describe.”

Kathy M.,
Farm Co-op

“I just got back. Our audience “LOVED” him, as I knew they would. I truly wish you could have been there to watch how the evening unfolded. You could have heard a pin drop in the room. As Paul began his presentation, there was a little noise in the room, however, about 5 minutes in, the audience settled down and Paul had fully engaged their attention. From that point, no one moved….. There was just breathing, the sound of Paul’s voice, the vision in the pictures, and the connection between Paul and his audience. I’m quite sure each attendee’s thoughts were tied to their farms and ranches; friends and relatives. It was an awesome thing to see and experience. Between the room and Paul’s presentation, it was magic!”
