2008 from PM Press
Worker
Cooperatives or Wage Slavery
A History
of Cooperation, Collectivity & Communalism in America
by
John Curl
"It
is indeed inspiring, in the face of all the misguided
praise of 'the market', to be
reminded by John Curl's book of the noble history of
cooperative work in the United States."
Howard Zinn, author of A Peoples History of the
United States
“This
new edition is greatly welcome, because we need a cooperative movement
and spirit more than ever before. Curl surveys all, and explains much.
New generations of readers will find this a fascinating account, and
aging co-opers like myself will understand better what we did, what we
tried to do, where we succeeded and where we failed. Get this book and
read it, Curl will do you good.” Paul
Buhle,
coeditor of Encyclopedia of the
American Left, founding editor of
Radical America (SDS).

Memories of Drop City
a memoir of the 1960s by John Curl
"John Curl’s characters in
Memories
of Drop City aspire to be ‘100 years’ ahead of the rest of us, but Curl
shows, through his highly crafted and brilliant novelistic memoir, that
they often succumb to the same social flaws as the rest of us. This
might be the most balanced memoir or novel yet published about the
Sixties." Ishmael Reed, National Book
Award nominee
"With this compelling
evocation and
portrayal of breathing people, John Curl unpacks the boxed lunch myth
of America’s alternative lifestyle Sixties, and restores the day to day
flavor of a deeply fabled era still key to understanding the way we
live (and don’t live)
now." Al Young, poet laureate of
California
