Imagine a cooperative farm so well run it points the way to a new century. Written in 1900, Edson's Solaris Farm is a utopian novel of scientific agriculture and shared prosperity, dreamed up as America crossed into the modern age. Part story, part manifesto for country life reborn. A curious, hopeful vision from the turn of the century.

Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
