Reclaiming Our Cities & Towns

Better Living With Less Traffic
By David Engwicht

Reclaiming Our Cities and Towns provides groundbreaking answers to the problems that cars and traffic inflict upon our neighborhoods, streets, and pedestrian rights. It points the way toward "eco-cities" where people can move (via foot, bicycles, and mass transit) and interact freely-without fear and pollution. Advocating community control, this is an excellent how-to book on organizing and planning for sustainable urban development.
