Arden

Focusing on the establishment of a unique utopian community, the book delves into the founding of Arden in 1900 by sculptor Frank Stephens and architect Will Price, inspired by Henry George's economic principles. Supported by philanthropist Joseph Fels, they created a vibrant colony in Delaware, drawing a diverse group of radicals and progressives, including notable figures like Upton Sinclair and Scott Nearing. Through photographs, it captures the early history of this little-known experiment in social reform and community living.
