"One bright summer afternoon, near the close of the month of August, 1905, two young college chums, Fillmore Flagg and George Gaylord, just met after a long separation, were seated on a rustic bench near a well-appointed mountain hotel. The superb view before them was well worthy of their half-hour's silent admiration. Full one thousand feet above the sea stands "Hotel Mount Meenahga" in the heart of the "Shawangunks," a mountain range in the state of New York, famed for its scenic beauty, cool dry air, pure water and commanding elevation. Looking northward a most charming landscape presents itself, a wonderful group of mountain ranges, stretching for seventy-five miles from near the Delaware Water-gap eastward to and including the Alpine peaks of the famous Catskills."

Autorenporträt
Milan C. Edson, an author who has artfully woven the principles of agrarianism and self-sufficiency into literature, is known for his insightful book 'Solaris Farm: A Story of the Twentieth Century.' Although not much is widely known about Edson's personal life or his literary career as a whole, 'Solaris Farm' has secured a place in discussions regarding utopian and pastoral narratives. The book, painted against the backdrop of a harmonious agricultural setting, presents a visionary take on a society that prioritizes agrarian ethics, sustainable living, and a close-knit community bond. Edson's narrative carries the hallmarks of detailed observational writing, and a philosophical inquiry into the industrialization of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. His prose reflects a yearning for simplicity and a reconnection with the natural world, themes prevalent among writers who questioned the rapid modernization of their time. While 'Solaris Farm' did not catapult Edson to the fame of contemporaries such as Thoreau or Wendell Berry, it nonetheless contributes to the genre of environmental literature and continues to be a pertinent exploration of ecological and societal ideals. Edson's contributions, though singular, provide an important cultural touchstone for readers and thinkers dedicated to understanding the implications of agrarian thought in modern contexts.
