RVING SLAB CITY, CALIFORNIA, is a complete guide to RVing to what is often referred to as the 'Last Free Place." In the United States we have freedom to roam in Recreational Vehicles, which are commonly referred to as RVs, like nowhere else in the world. Though rarely marked on maps, there is a place in California known as Slab City or The Slabs that takes this RVing freedom to the extreme. It is not only free of boondocking (also known as "dry" camping or staying in an RV without hookups) fees, it is also largely free of rules and regulations. Before I had actually been there and boondocked there and experienced it for myself, I could not believe that such a place could exist. Now that I have been there, its existence still seems problematical to me. One of the reasons I keep returning is, I think, to see if it is still there as I remember it to have been. The talk of "developing" it was around long before I first went there, and it continues. It is known as "the last free place," but I have no idea how much longer this will continue. Development will surely mean fees and restrictions, so if you want to experience the off-the-grid free and unrestricted boondocking in your RV, you had better do it now. This book is all about what led me to Slab City, why I keep returning, and what I do while I am there. And more importantly it is about how you can experience Slab City for yourself. This book is intended as a complete guide for RVing Slab City, with history and how Slab City came to be thrown in for good measure. It's also about boondocking in RVs in general and in Slab City in particular. Slab City is off the grid. There are no hookups. If you want to spend time in your RV at Slab City, you boondock. There is no other choice. This book shows how.

Turning the attention to the temporal as well as the more familiar spatial dimensions of mobility, this volume focuses on the momentum for and temporal composition of mobility, the rate at which people enact or deploy their movements as well as the conditions under which these moves are being marshalled, represented and contested. This is an anthropological exploration of temporality as a form of action, a process of actively modulating or responding to how people are moving rather than the more usual focus in mobility studies on where they are heading.

In Winnebago Nation, popular critic James B. Twitchell takes a light-hearted look at the culture and industry behind the yearning to spend the night in one's car. For the young the roadtrip is a coming-of-age ceremony; for those later in life it is the realization of a lifelong desire to be spontaneous, nomadic, and free. Informed by his own experiences on the road, Twitchell recounts the RV's origins and evolution over the twentieth century; its rise, fall, and rebirth as a cultural icon; its growing mechanical complexity as it evolved from an estate wagon to a converted bus to a mobile home; and its role in bolstering and challenging conceptions of American identity. Mechanical yet dreamy, independent yet needful, solitary yet clubby, adventurous yet homebound, life in a mobile home is a distillation of the American character and an important embodiment of American exceptionalism, (Richie Rich and Hobo Hank spend time in essentially the same rig at the same campground, albeit for different reasons and in different levels of comfort.) The frontier may be tapped out but we still yearn for the exploratory life. Twitchell concludes with his thoughts on the future of RV communities and the possibility of mobile cities becoming a real part of the American landscape.

The award-winning poet Karen Solie’s striking fifth collection of poetry blends the story of a seventh-century monk with contemporary themes of economic class, environmentalism, and solitude in an ever-connected world if one asks for a sign must one accept what’s given? Ethernan, an Irish missionary in the seventh century, retreated to the Caiplie Caves on the eastern coast of Scotland to consider life as a hermit. In The Caiplie Caves, Karen Solie’s fifth collection of poems, short-listed for the T. S. Eliot Prize, Solie inhabits a figure inspired by Ethernan, a man torn between the communal and the contemplative. His story is remarkable for the mysticism embedded in the ordinary; as Solie writes in her preface, Ethernan is not known for supernatural feats, but “is said to have survived for a very long time on bread and water.” Interwoven with the voice of this figure are poems whose subjects orbit the physical location of the caves and join the sharply contemporary to the mythic past: the fall of a coal-fired power station; a “druid shouting astrology” outside a liquor store, putting “the Ambien in ambience”; seabirds “frontloaded with military tech”; the dichotomous nature of the stinging nettle. These are meditations on the crisis of time and change, on class, power, and belief. Above all, these are ambitious and exhilarating poems from one of today’s most gifted poetic voices.
