description: When the first volume of this book was published in 2011 Strong Towns was a fledgling nonprofit. Since then it has grown into a national media organization with an award-winning website StrongTowns.org and accompanying podcast. Over the last five years Strong Towns member base has grown and its message has spread across the country. Volume II is a chance to share the top essays published on our website in 2015 reworked and compiled into compelling chapters including Can you be an engineer and speak out for reform? Dealing with Congestion and My Car Pays Cheaper Rent Than Me. Also included are sections on Strong Towns ongoing campaigns #NoNewRoads and #SlowtheCars. The book features writing from Strong Towns president Charles Marohn as well as several Strong Towns contributors.
