All Things in Common
Author: Ruth Compton Brouwer
Publisher: University of Toronto Press
ISBN: 1487537298
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 234
Book Description
In the first decade of the twentieth century, a few closely related families established a utopian community in Canada’s smallest province. Known officially as B. Compton Limited but described by a journalist in 1935 as "Prince Edward Island’s unique ‘brotherly love’ community," this utopia owed its longevity to the cohesion provided by its communal organization, dense kin ties, and long-held millenarianism – and to a decidedly pragmatic approach to business. All Things in Common demonstrates how "un-utopian" such a community could be while problematizing the contention that the inevitable end of all utopian experiments is a full-blown dystopia. Beginning with a compelling backstory and locating the Compton community in the historiography of North American utopias, the author goes on to explore the community’s business endeavours, its religious, familial, and transgressive aspects, and its brief period of international fame before assessing the factors that led to its dissolution in 1947. Providing a strong narrative framework, All Things in Common draws on rich family and archival records and diverse secondary sources, concluding with a consideration of the community’s legacy for its alumni and their descendants.

Pages : 279
Book Description
Stranded and alone on a bitterly cold night in the North Idaho mountains, Abigail Sandstone has few options. She is out of gas, has no cell phone service, and is facing a very long jog down a steep mountain road back to town. Then she spies lights across the canyon. Can this be her salvation? She climbs onto the opposite road and finds the headlights of a dark, idling limousine outlining three dangerous-looking thugs brutally torturing a defenseless woman. Abigail searches for a way to help and is stunned when the woman breaks free of her captors and flings a set of keys her way while fleeing toward the roadside brush. Shots ring out, the woman disappears from sight, and now Abigail is the new target. As the men chase her into the cold dark mountains, Abigail quickly discovers that they are no ordinary thugs. These men are expert trackers and trained killers. Without a gun or survival gear, she must use her self-defense training and knowledge of the forests to stay ahead of them. Tired and alone, she fights to outdistance herself from the killers. But is her desperate will to survive enough to get her back home to her family?
