Flagland is the story of a farm in the rich swampland of Southeast Missouri that was part of the push to drain and tame the area, as told through the eyes of the Heath and Hubbard families. This heartfelt and touching story portrays the struggles and triumphs of farm life and and the strong bond that held their family together. Ralph and Alma Hubbard's story is conveyed through the ongoing chronicle of Round Robin letters spanning 36 years that circulated among over a dozen farm families. The voice of their daughter, Martha Jean Stewart, continues into the next generation with her skillful story telling. You'll enjoy her direct and lively wit as she remembers the life of perseverance and love born of the close-knit family called the farm.

This collection of essays charts the intellectual trajectory of Barbara Glowczewski, an anthropologist who has worked with the Warlpiri people of Australia since 1979. She shows that the ways Aboriginal people actualise virtualities of their Dreaming space-time into collective networks of ritualised places resonate with Guattarian and Deleuzian concepts. Inspired by the art and struggles of different Indigenous people and other discriminated groups, especially women, Glowczewski draws on her own conversations with Guattari, and her debates with various scholars to deliver an innovative agenda for radical anthropology.
