In this book, the author argues that while the expression "town planning" is widely recognized, in practice the phrase is meaningless since most towns are not planned organically as a whole, but rather, grow haphazardly. Unlike a house, no town is created from a complete design. This leads to towns that are unsuccessful as organisms.

NATIONAL BEST SELLER • The basis for the HBO documentary now streaming on HBO Max For five years, James and Deborah Fallows have travelled across America in a single-engine prop airplane. Visiting dozens of towns, the America they saw is acutely conscious of its problems—from economic dislocation to the opioid scourge—but it is also crafting solutions, with a practical-minded determination at dramatic odds with the bitter paralysis of national politics. At times of dysfunction on a national level, reform possibilities have often arisen from the local level. The Fallowses describe America in the middle of one of these creative waves. Their view of the country is as complex and contradictory as America itself, but it also reflects the energy, the generosity and compassion, the dreams, and the determination of many who are in the midst of making things better. Our Towns is the story of their journey—and an account of a country busy remaking itself.

John Nolen (1869-1937) was a pioneer in the development of professional town and city planning in the United States. This new edition of the rare and long out of print New Towns for Old (1927) contains additional plans and illustrations and Nolen's project list, never before been published. Charles D. Warren's introduction presents biographical and historical context that illuminates the diverse, productive career of this nationally significant practitioner.
