Strong Towns: A Bottom-Up Revolution to Rebuild American Prosperity by Charles L. Marohn Jr.

hopeful informative reflective medium-paced

4.0

Read as a group over four sessions. The group leader used provided questions to steer the discussion. When combined with a group taking local action, it’s a great read. A little fry at times but that’s the material. 

The analysis is very close to a marxist critique but never quite gets there. Palatable to a wide array of folks, which I find quite an achievement. 

Overall good read if you are even remotely interested in learning how your North American city works (and doesn’t).
