Editorial Reviews

It is a thorough, meticulous study . . . that corrects many earlier misconceptions and errors of fact about New Harmony, Indiana, and the seven other Owenite communities founded in 1826 and 1827. It should become the standard source for basic factual information on these societies.

The Journal of American History

Indispensable to understanding Owenism's character and why it failed.
