From the seventeeth to the twentieth century America has been both a haven for utopian dreamers and a fertile ground for experiments in community. In All Things New, Robert S. Fogarty provides the first comprehensive study of a neglected chapter in the history of American utopian and communal experiments. Countering the view that utopianism declined dramatically after the 1840s, Fogarty uncovers a wealth of utopian experiments across the United States from 1860 to 1914. He examines 125 communities and their leaders, ranging from the secular and entrepreneurial to the mystical and charismatic. These engrossing tales of communes gain both authority and vitality from exhaustive research in primary sources, including newspapers, journals, and letters, and from the inclusion of historic photographs of colonists and prophets. Fogarty's arguments reflect recurrent cultural forces in American history, as he defines new territory in the history of utopian and communal movements.
