Purchase options and add-ons

If you have ever felt out of place living in the modern world, Retroculture gives you the option to dwell in a different era.

Addressing the various aesthetics, architectural styles, values and manners of days gone by, William Lind identifies the concepts of Retroculture and provides the reader with the tool-set to begin situating their lives in the “new-old.”

However, this shift in lifestyle addresses not only the hobbyist, but also American society at large, urging a return to an era in which truth, politeness and beauty were considered paramount, and pointing a way forward to a brighter future for the nation as a whole.

5.0 out of 5 stars Finally, a positively written book that is destined to have a serious societal impact.
Reviewed in the United States on January 2, 2023

This is a great work that invites the reader to join in a movement that is already beginning to bring us back to societal sanity. Its not just a walk down memory lane, although it does include some pleasant touch stones you are sure to enjoy. At its core this is a serious examination of how we can fix a society that has unfortunately lost its way. Not everything in the past was perfect, nevertheless there was much more right about it than today's woke culture is willing to admit. Slow down and take a stroll with a man who has his feet firmly planted in reality and would like to tell you about how he and some of his friends are quietly building a better world. They are recapturing what was best about our past and applying it to our world today, with exciting effect.

5.0 out of 5 stars Better than expected
Reviewed in the United States on April 15, 2021

Up front, my only complaint is that there's limited information available for this product online. Based on the cover art, I was somewhat expected some illustrations inside; maybe photos/images of Retroculture fashion, decor, house styles, etc. But there's not. Would love to find a book that did include that element.

But regardless, in terms of the books actual content, it really is a great book, and I strongly believe more Americans should read this. I enjoy that there is a a lot of references that lead me to research further, outside the book.

America as we know it is slowly disappearing; this book helps individuals and communities hold on to the great parts of America's past, culture, and traditions. All in a positive way.

4.0 out of 5 stars A LOOK BACK THAT MAY BE A LOOK FORWARD
Reviewed in the United States on September 28, 2021

I've been reading the books, commentary and journalism of William S. Lind now for over 30 years. I almost always find myself in agreement with him. His theories on the nature of modern warfare have had a profound effect on my strategic thinking. i have written two articles for a publication relating to the 4th Generation Warfare concepts surrounding the fall of Afghanistan and the man who made me a 4GW advocate was none other than Mr. Lind through his writings on the subject . It was the thought of William S. Lind that persuaded me that the Frankfurt School was the biggest influence on the contemporary American Left many years ago. His thinking is always on the cutting edge.

In "Retroculture" Lind takes a more relaxed view of things, but there is still a great deal of seriousness behind much of his whimsy. Mr. Lind contends that modern American life is in many ways inferior to earlier points in our history. The author examines the possibilities of morals, manners and customs reverting to
older models of behavior. He even considers topics like modes of dress, architecture, entertainment and travel. Lind is realistic in the possibilities for such change and is not entirely entranced by nostalgia. This book is definitely worth a read.

I really enjoyed this book! I think the author is like myself in that he must also be quite a dreamer! What’s wrong with that? The book is about an attitude. If you think that America had a lot to offer in the past, and would like to reintroduce what was lost back into your life, then you’ll want to get this book. I think you will enjoy this book, too.

Great read about modesty, paints a picture, conveys an argument. Might have to check out any number of the retro towns mentioned in the book, especially when it's time to settle down. Lind's books are interesting.

2.0 out of 5 stars Retro LARPing
Reviewed in the United States on June 30, 2019

I don't know what I expected but this wasn't it. You can pick your time capsule but one possibility is to buy a '50 split level ranch house, fill it with '50s furniture and a retro black and white TV that only plays top hits like 'I Love Lucy' and 'Lassie'. Don't forget the Friday night fights sponsored by Gillette before Gillette went completely off the rails. Of course the two car garage will have a '58 Buick Roadmaster. Your '50s waifu will prepare period delicacies like green bean casserole with canned onion rings on top. And Jello. Don't forget the marvelous things you can do with Jello.

The author gives some hints on where you can find some nice '50s togs. Of course you'll want something suitable to go out dancing after you've brushed up your foxtrot. It's even better if you can find some other people to share your time warp so you can have a good old '50s PTA meeting to say nothing of the church bakesales! Do all this and the world will suddenly be rosy.

Lest anyone think I'm a snotty Gen Xer, I'm a couple of months younger than the author. I've been to the '50s and I ain't going back.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good overview of the concept of “retro-culture”, an interesting read!
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on February 13, 2020
Verified Purchase
I enjoyed this book. It is what it says on the tin so to speak, though had a few valuable insights which I enjoyed a lot. Would recommend!

The form of retroculture it advocates is very generic (i.e. “go to church”), though this seems to be catering towards the broad audience that may read this book. So not a criticism of the book but something to note.
