A disparate but exuberant group of scholars are brought together in
Savannah by an eminent professor to explore and debate the history
and characteristics of the city and its implications for a
twenty-first century urbanism. This narrative represents a forceful
and humorous interplay between formal discussion, informal
interludes, irreverent comments, and less than academic
relationships. Its serious purpose is to identify the urban
challenges facing America in terms of containing and consolidating
growth within livable communities. However like all such
participatory events it is also an opportunity for informal
personal agendas set against a backdrop of real life events. The
text is interspersed with 90 drawings of Savannah, illustrating its
unique and multilayered identity as a potential urban paradigm for
the future.
