Tabloid newspaper. A collection of 61 loose issues, comprising a complete run of the first volume: Vol. 1, Nos. 1-12 (January - December, 1963) and additional loose and related material as described below. Edited by Mildred J. Loomis, sometimes called the "Grandmother of the Counter-Culture," *The Green Revolution* was one of the official organs of Ralph Borsodi's traveling utopian experiment The School Of Living, which promoted Borsodi's and Loomis's ideals of modern homesteading, family-farming, and decentralized culture. Started in 1936, The School of Living was relocated to the Loomis homestead at Brookville, Ohio in 1945, where she also served for nearly 40 years as the School's Director. A scarce collection of early issues, an important precursor to the "back-to-the-land" movement of the Sixties and Seventies. An inventory of all 61 issues and the additional material follows: 12 consecutive issues: Vol. 1, Nos. 1-12 (January - December, 1963). 49 non-consecutive loose issues from 1964 through 1973: Vol. 2 (1964), nos. 1,2,4,9,10,12; Vol. 3 (1965), nos. 1-5; Vol. 4 (1966), nos. 5-12; Vol. 5 (1967), no. 5; Vol. 6 (1968), nos. 1,2,4,5,8,9; Vol. 7 (1969), no. 12; Vol. 8, nos. 1-10; Vol. 8, no.12/Vol. 9, no.1 (combined issue); Vol. 9 (1971), nos. 4,5,8,9,12; + seven irregularly numbered issues: June 1971 (2 copies); October 1972; January, March-April, May, June, July-August, 1973.
