How does a small town, a county, a state and our nation reverse suburban sprawl? This question has become the focal point of a crusade by Pennsylvania Newsman Tom Hylton, as he watched his lovely small town decline while the surrounding countryside was paved over for a jumble of roads, stores, parking lots and tract housing.

His crusade led to a Pulitzer Prize, a year-long planning fellowship, an influential book, a public television documentary and finally to the charitable corporation 'Save our Land, Save our Towns', inc.
