Abstract: *The Community Land Trust Reader* compiles key writings on the history, development, and impact of community land trusts (CLTs), focusing on their role in affordable housing and broader social, economic, and environmental issues. The book explores the contributions of visionaries in the CLT movement and examines global applications, including those in Cambridge, extending beyond the U.S. to promote sustainable land use. It provides insights into the future of CLTs, with commentaries, a selected bibliography, and an index. Written by experts, this resource offers valuable guidance for academics, policymakers, and community leaders striving to create lasting, equitable change in land use and housing.
