Notes:

  • This volume holds to the remarkable thesis that agrarianism is alive in twenty-first century America and–if not exactly well–showing clear and enticing prospects for the future. It also emphasizes the evident bond of the healthy, natural family to an agrarian–or agrarian-like–household, where the ‘sexual’ and the ‘economic’ are merged through marriage and child-bearing and where the family is defined in considerable measure by its material efforts — Foreword, page ix-x.
  • Includes bibliographical references and index.
