The First edition was printed a year earlier in march of 1891.

In this society, there is no private property, large cities, authority, monetary system, marriage or divorce, courts, prisons, or class distinctions. It is an agrarian society that functions smoothly because people derive pleasure from nature and, therefore, from their work. Condition: Very Good Condition.
