Chasing Eden: A Book of Seekers

Chasing Eden is about seekers, Americans searching for their Eden, longing for a Promised Land, a utopia somewhere out on the horizon. With his usual deep perception, humor, and grace, Howard Mansfield writes about a small gathering of Americans united by longing and devotion in their search for something perfect here on earth, a goal that is ever receding. Mansfield illuminates how this longing - for God, for freedom, for peace - can be found in every era, and gives form and force to our lives in our pursuit of happiness -
the primary occupation of every American.
