Or Over The Range (1908)

Erewhon: Or Over The Range is a satirical novel written by Samuel Butler and first published in 1908. The book is set in the imaginary land of Erewhon, which is a utopian society that is based on the principles of reason and rationality. The story follows the journey of the protagonist, Higgs, who travels to Erewhon and discovers that the society is not as perfect as it seems. He encounters many strange customs and beliefs, such as the punishment of illness and the worship of machines. Higgs also discovers that the Erewhonians have a taboo against the study of history and the use of money. The book is a critique of Victorian society and its values, and it explores themes such as the dangers of science and progress, the importance of individuality and free will, and the limitations of reason and rationality. Erewhon: Or Over The Range is a thought-provoking and entertaining novel that continues to be relevant today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
