The Modern Utopian by Richard Fairfield

The definitive exploration of the alternative communities that redefined progressive culture in the 1970s. Fairfield spent the better part of a decade visiting and reporting on communes of all types to create an intimate and fascinating view into communal living. This expansively illustrated compilation visits the notorious Drop City, John Sinclair's Translove Energies in Detroit, Stephen Gaskin's farm and dozens of other alternative communities across the US.
Fairfield self-published dozens of magazines and books in the '70s, documenting experimental community groups. Timothy Miller calls them the most valuable investigations of their time. Timothy Miller teaches at the University of Kansas and is known as being the pre-eminent scholar of alternative living environments.
