More about the book
The narrative explores the intriguing history of two utopian communities in 19th-century America, focusing on New Harmony, Indiana. Initially founded by Father George Rapp, the community aimed to embody Scriptural communism, later evolving under Robert Owen's rationalist vision. Both attempts ultimately failed, yet they reflect a persistent American quest for utopia, intertwining faith and ambition. Marguerite Young's elegant prose captures this complex legacy, which continues to resonate in contemporary society. This edition features an introduction by Mark Van Doren.
