For Erik Reece, life, at last, was good: he was newly married, gainfully employed, living in a creekside cabin in his beloved Kentucky woods. It sounded, as he describes it, 'like a country song with a happy ending.' And yet he was still haunted by a sense that the worldor, more specifically, his countrycould be better. He couldn't ignore his conviction that, in fact, the good ol' USA was in the midst of great social, environmental, and political crisesthat for the first time in our history, we were being swept into a future that had no future. Where did wehere, in the land of Jeffersonian optimism and better tomorrowsgo wrong?Rather than despair, Reece turned to those who had dared to imagine radically different futures for America. What followed was a giant road trip and research adventure through the sites of America's utopian communities, both historical and contemporary, known and unknown, successful and catastrophic. What he uncovered was not just a series of lost histories and broken visionaries but also a continuing and vital but hidden idealistic tradition in American intellectual history. Utopia Drive is an important and definitive reconstruction of that tradition. It is also, perhaps, a new framework to help us find a genuinely sustainable way forward.' an engaging exploration and example of the fruitful tunnelvisions of dreamers turned doers.'
