Our Towns: A Journey into the Heart of America

Setup

Is the view from “out there” in America as bleak as our pundits and politicos keep telling us it is? Deborah and James Fallows — who have spent the past five years traveling the interior of America from South Dakota to South Carolina and dozens of points in between — say no. Their new best-selling book, Our Towns: A 100,000-Mile Journey into the Heart of America, argues that a local-level wave of renewal and re-engagement is already underway. The crucial political question, they say, is how and when this positive version of the country’s future will inform our national debate.
