An indepth and compelling account of diverse Americans living off the grid. Los Angeles TimesThe radical search for the simple life in todays America.On a frigid April night, a classically trained opera singer, five months pregnant, and her husband, a former marine biologist, disembark an Amtrak train in La Plata, Missouri, assemble two bikes, and pedal off into the night, bound for a homestead theyve purchased, sight unseen. Meanwhile, a horticulturist, heir to the Great Migration that brought masses of African Americans to Detroit, and her husband, a product of the white flight from it, have turned to urban farming to revitalize the blighted city they both love. And near Missoula, Montana, a couple who have been at the forefront of organic farming for decades navigate what it means to live and raise a family ethically.A work of immersive journalism steeped in a distinctively American social history and sparked by a personal quest, The Unsettlers traces the search for the simple life through the stories of these new pioneers and what inspired each of them to look for or create a better existence. Captivating and cleareyed, it dares us to imagine what a sustainable, ethical, authentic future might actually look like.

I picked up 'In Search of the Good Life in Today's America' after hearing rave reviews, and it didn't disappoint! The way it dives into the complexities of modern life is something I really needed. It's perfect for book clubs and discussions — definitely sparked some great conversations with friends.

A Mixed Bag for Sure
I really wanted to love this book, but it was a bit of a struggle. Some sections were great, while others felt like they dragged on. I appreciate the effort to tackle tough topics, but I just wish it flowed better throughout. Not bad, but not my favorite.

Interesting but Dense
This book has some really insightful ideas, but I found parts of it a bit hard to get through. The writing is deep, which I appreciate, but it could've been more engaging at times. Still, it offers a unique perspective on life in America today.

Disappointed with the Approach
I had high hopes for 'In Search of the Good Life', but I was really let down. It felt overly philosophical without enough practical examples. I expected more stories and real-life applications to connect with. Wouldn't recommend if you want something more straightforward.
