| Abstract
|
:
|
"The political import of complex current events requires great urgency, clarity and care. Nothing less than the future of our nation is at stake. Wendell Berry's Citizenship Papers, collecting nineteen new essays, is a ringing alarm, a call for resistance and responsibility, and a reminder of how fragile our commonwealth has become at the dawn of the twenty-first century."--BOOK JACKET.
