Is Rancho Vista the cradle of unconditional love or a wilderness sex cult? Dr. Cyrus Aaron calls the Ranch his “human relations laboratory.” Is he a courageous advocate for youth or a psychopathic predator? Dr. Aaron’s young protégés believe he is their savior, but are horrified by what they do with the power he gives them. Aaron’s star pupil Steve yearns to be like his brilliant mentor.

This book traces the development of agrarian ideas from the 1770s to Chartism and beyond, exploring why, in an era of industrialization and urban growth, land remained one of the major issues in British popular politics. Arguing that agrarianism was an integral part of the working-class experience and radical politics, Chase analyzes the relationship between "land consciousness" and early socialism, the attempts to create alternative communities, and contemporary perceptions of nature and the environment. He also provides the most extensive study to date of the influence of Thomas Spence and his followers, and throws new light on the Spa fields and Cato Street conspiracies, charting their contribution to the radicalism of the period.

Farming While Black is the first comprehensive "how to" guide for aspiring African-heritage growers to reclaim their dignity as agriculturists and for all farmers to understand the distinct, technical contributions of African-heritage people to sustainable agriculture. At Soul Fire Farm, author Leah Penniman co-created the Black and Latino Farmers Immersion (BLFI) program as a container for new farmers to share growing skills in a culturally relevant and supportive environment led by people of color. Farming While Black organizes and expands upon the curriculum of the BLFI to provide readers with a concise guide to all aspects of small-scale farming, from business planning to preserving the harvest. Throughout the chapters Penniman uplifts the wisdom of the African diasporic farmers and activists whose work informs the techniques described--from whole farm planning, soil fertility, seed selection, and agroecology, to using whole foods in culturally appropriate recipes, sharing stories of ancestors, and tools for healing from the trauma associated with slavery and economic exploitation on the land. Woven throughout the book is the story of Soul Fire Farm, a national leader in the food justice movement.--AMAZON.

Lyric and Labour in the Romantic Tradition, first published in 1998, examines the legacy of Romantic poetics in the poetry produced in political movements during the nineteenth century. It argues that a communitarian tradition of poetry extending from the 1790s to the 1890s learned from and incorporated elements of Romantic lyricism, and produced an ongoing and self-conscious tradition of radical poetics. Showing how romantic lyricism arose as an engagement between the forces of reason and custom, Anne Janowitz examines the ways in which this Romantic dialectic infected the writings of political poets from Thomas Spence to William Morris. The book includes new readings of familiar Romantic poets including Wordsworth and Shelley, and investigates the range of poetic genres in the 1790s. In the case studies which follow, it examines relatively unknown Chartist and Republican poets such as Ernest Jones and W. J. Linton, showing their affiliation to the Romantic tradition, and making the case for the persistence of Romantic problematics in radical political culture.
