Book Synopsis


Trade Review
“Readers will enjoy this comprehensive book on organic food that explains how it has gone from being ridiculed to wildly popular—and grown into a multibillion-dollar industry.”Leslie A. Duram, author of Good Growing: Why Organic Farming Works

“O’Sullivan dissects the power of government, agribusiness, chemical manufacturers, homesteaders, and foodies themselves to reveal how the organics movement has been swayed by market pressures and demands.” Margaret Gray, author of Labor and the Locavore: The Making of a Comprehensive Food Ethic

“American Organic helps explain modern longings for things artisanal, local, simple and untainted.”Andrew Kirk, author of Counterculture Green: The Whole Earth Catalog and American Environmentalism.
