"Jennie C. Jones recent exhibitions often feature an amalgam of painting, sound and sculpture.... She manipulates everyday objects related to sound--objects that belong to modes and systems of listening to sound or producing it as well as systems of organizing it--to generate implied sound.

This re-issue of the 1984 work includes a new preface. The saga of the failed town of Alderson, Alberta illustrates the greater story of drought and depopulation in the prairie dry belt of southwestern Alberta and eastern Saskatchewan from the turn of the century through the mid 1900s. According to Jones, a professor of history from Calgary, the doomed farmer exodus from the core of the continent, "part of a massive North American tragedy," was encouraged by boosterism, lightning expansion, and miscalculation. A substantial appendix lists population data and crop prices. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
America has vastly changed from its originality. Its roots are no longer foundationally secured, and its context has fallen into historical negationism.

What was America then? Who are we now? Which "truth" will you salute?
