Launched in 2014, Front Porch Republic Books publishes works about place, localism, community, decentralism, and conservation. Titles include significant works on politics, economics, and culture, as well as new editions of previously published works that deserve a new audience. Other titles provide practical advice on how to enact and embody a localist ethic. FPR Books’ managing editor is Jason Peters, and its editorial advisory board includes such prominent public figures as Andrew Bacevich, Rod Dreher, Richard Gamble, and Walter McDougall.
Among FPR Books’ inaugural titles are Poetry Night at the Ballpark, and Other Scenes from an Alternative America, by Bill Kauffman; America Moved: Booth Tarkington’s Memoirs of Time and Place, 1869–1928, edited by Jeremy Beer; and The Demise of Virtue in Virtual America: The Moral Origins of the Great Recession, by David Bosworth.
