Download The Unsettlers: In Search of the Good Life in Today's America AudioBook Free
The radical search for the simple life in the current America. On the frigid April nighttime, a classically trained opera singer, five weeks pregnant, and her spouse, a former sea biologist, disembark an Amtrak train in La Plata, Missouri, assemble two bicycles, and pedal off in to the night, destined for a homestead they've purchased sight unseen. On the other hand, a horticulturist, heir to the Great Migration that helped bring masses of African People in the usa to Detroit, and her spouse, a product of the white trip from it, have turned to urban farming to revitalize the blighted city they both love. And near Missoula, Montana, one or two who've been at the forefront of organic farming for decades navigate what this means to reside in and raise a family group ethically. A work of immersive journalism steeped in a distinctively American social record and sparked by an individual pursuit, The Unsettlers traces the search for the simple life through the reviews of these new pioneers and what encouraged all of them to consider - or create - an improved lifetime. Captivating and clear-eyed, it dares us to assume what a lasting, ethical, genuine future might actually look like.
