Introduction -- Missouri -- Detroit -- Montana -- Epilogue.
Summary:
A work of immersive journalism steeped in a distinctively American social history and sparked by a personal quest, [this book] traces the search for the simple life through the stories of three families of new pioneers and what inspired each of them to look for-- or create-- a better existence. Captivating and clear-eyed, it dares us to imagine what a sustainable, ethical, authentic future might actually look like.-- Adapted from book jacket.
