Something truly fascinating is afoot in a region of the Upper Midwest commonly known as the Driftless. Covering parts of four states--Illinois, Iowa, Wisconsin, and Minnesota--that share a shoreline with the Mississippi River, the Driftless area was spared the glacial activity that leveled the rest of the Midwest landscape. What is left is a common culture of tucked away hills and valleys, where small-scale farming, a respect and love of nature, and close-knit community are the norm. Attitudes and lifestyles in the Driftless run counter to many of the trends in the rest of the nation and just might be a future blueprint for a downsized United States. A seasoned journalist known for his nuanced reporting, Stephen J. Lyons tells the stories of the Driftless through the colorful and unforgettable voices of residents who defy easy characterizations and lazy narratives. Readers will meet seed savers, off-the-gridders, birders, farmers, musicians, artists, and writers, all who share a common bond in a separate nation called the Driftless.
