Guide to the Nation

This work is a collaboration of the writers of The Nation Journal which would be a tremendous source of progressive nodes in America. I know of no other source so rich in content for progressive citizens.The Nation Guide to the Nation (Vintage)

Guide To Tfhe Nation

This is an interesting little book about a bunch of liberal and progressive businesses, services, sites, etc etc I had no idea existed. Cool stuff!

An Encouraging Read

Those of us progressives who don't live in huge metropolitan areas will find this book helpful. I found it most encouraging to finally have in hand the closest thing available to a guidebook in my ongoing search for signs of progressive thought in the Midwest and wherever my spouse and I might travel. Highly recommend.

Must read for a leftist

I'm not a leftist, but if I was I would buy this book ASAP. Need to find a lefty bookstore in Northern California? This is your guide. You can find leftist think tanks, TV and radio shows, reading clubs, and many other resources in The Nation Guide to the Nation. No, I don't know if it's printed on recycled paper.

A Unapologetic Liberal Guide For Liberals

Though the fact that it is a handbook to being an "original, progressive, and indie liberal" is somewhat ironic in of itself, /The Nation Guide to the Nation/ is nonetheless helpful for anyone living in the US that is looking to find some Liberal culture points of interest - be they radio and TV programs, coffee/book stores, or even political gatherings. It covers people, places, and happenings that are all over the country that carry or support leftist politics and/or lifestyle, and details how and why they do what they do. Progressive fanatics will find it informative and relevant in the extreme; Hipsters looking to play the part will find it to be their secret weapon of Cool; Political activists will use it as their trusty yellow-pages when looking for recruiting grounds; Conservatives of all types will most likely hate it. Overall, /The Nation Guide to the Nation/ fulfills everything that it is meant to be, and often does so with a quite appropriate sense of humor.
