Pretty good, I thought. It's a little dated around the edges having been written in the very early 1990s, but the historical review is still valid. I expect to read [b:Home from Nowhere: Remaking Our Everyday World for the 21st Century|125314|Home from Nowhere Remaking Our Everyday World For the 21st Century|James Howard Kunstler|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1348675853s/125314.jpg|120690], but you can see in the final chapter that he's headed down the road to apocalypse which, for him, takes the form of [b:The Long Emergency: Surviving the End of Oil, Climate Change, and Other Converging Catastrophes of the Twenty-First Century|83633|The Long Emergency Surviving the End of Oil, Climate Change, and Other Converging Catastrophes of the Twenty-First Century|James Howard Kunstler|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1347739072s/83633.jpg|80739] and I'm not sure I'll read that. At least I assume that that book is an apocalyptic, all-the-oil-is-gone story.
