This is the true story of Arthurdale, West Virginia, a town created as a “pet project” of the Roosevelts. Designed to be (in the words of Eleanor Roosevelt) “a human experiment station”, she was to create a “New American” citizen who would embrace a collectivist form of life. This book tells the story of what happened to the people resettled in Arthurdale and how the policies implemented there shaped America as we know it. Arthurdale was the foundation upon which modern America was built.
