The New Settler Interviews Volume 1: Boogie At The Brink, edited by Beth Robinson Bosk, Paperback

Excellent condition. Listed as "very good" only due to the fact that is it a large softback and did not stand straight in storage and now has a curve to it. Other than that, there is no wear and is very clean.

Synopsis:

From Maine to Arizona and Oregon to the Carolinas, people have come home to the land. They've created original census tracks, new family traditions, and fresh forms of micro-business that combine entrepreneurial verve with a desire to restore to our connection with the Earth. These are the New Settlers.

Since 1985, Beth Robinson Bosk and photographer R.D. Deines have published the now-legendary counterculture newsprint magazine New Settler Interview, a bi-monthly collection of long, engrossing, freewheeling conversations with creative refugees and renegardes. Perched on the Pacific Rim, in a world of ancient forests and salmon streams, they are the intrepid pioneers of America's eco-frontier.

This first book-length collection of these mesmerizing dialogues--including an insightful early interview with the now-famous tree-sitter Julia Butterfly Hill--introduces readers to a rich collection of fascinating folks, provides a "keyhole" peek into the counterculture lifestyle, and captures the spirit of spontaneous adventure that characterizes America's back-to-the-land pioneers from coast to coast.
