Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Visionaries of all ages and places have pursued Utopias, dreaming impossible dreams of starting over in new communities fashioned more closely to their ideals. In Visions of Utopia, John Egerton traces the fascinating history of the experimental communities founded by such groups in Tennessee. He focuses in particular on three extraordinary colonies of the 19th century, each of them widely known in its time: Nashoba, and interracial settlement near Memphis in 1825; Rugby, an English cooperative community on the Cumberland Plateau in 1880; and Ruskin, a socialist community in Dickson County in 1894. John Egerton is a native Southerner - A Georgian by birth, a Kentuckian in his childhood and youth, a Floridian during the early 1960's, and a Tennessean since 1965. He is a grandson of one of the English colonists who started the Rugby settlement in 1880. As a journalist and author, he has written articles on a variety of subjects for more than twenty magazines, and has published two books about the South: A Mind to Stay Here (1970) and The Americanization of Dixie (1974).

Book excerpt: The Rugby colony opened amid great fanfare in 1880 on East Tennessees sparsely settled and rugged Cumberland Plateau. Famous British author and social reformer Thomas Hughes was the most involved and dedicated of Rugbys Anglo-American founders. He intended Rugby to be a class-free, agrarian community based on cooperative enterprise, culture, and religious freedom. During its first decade, hundreds immigrated to Rugby from the British Isles; hundreds more came from other parts of America. Some stayed briefly, some for years, some for life. More than 60 cottages, villas, and commercial and institutional buildings of distinctive Victorian styles were built during Rugbys early years. Though Rugby was briefly the most thriving community on the northern plateau, many factors prevented realization of Hughess utopian goals. Rugby today is a rare surviving example of 19th-century utopian community building. The historic town plan, surrounding woodland and rivers, and key original buildings survive, unspoiled by modern development, through committed restoration and preservation. Heritage tourism is bringing new life.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rugby: Morgan County, Tennessee, Settlement; Founded October 5th, 1880 The publication of this pamphlet has been delayed by reason of the great influx of visitors and settlers since opening day (5th October). There is still considerable pressure on the house room at the disposal of the Board, and intending settlers and visitors are, therefore, requested to give a few days' notice, addressed to "The Secretary of the Board of Aid, etc., Rugby, Tenn.," of the accommodation which they will require.
