Philip Conford chronicles the surprising origins of the organic movement in Britain and America between the 1920s and 1960s. He reveals that the early exponents of the organic movement actually belonged more to extreme right-wing conservative groups, which were reacting to industrialization and the increasing threat to traditional country life, closely associated with socialist politics.
