John etzler was an american writer of German origin. In 1831,he joined forces with a young engineer named John Roebling,to lead followers across the Atlatic to establish a colony.
He dreamt of a green and idyllic world where the energy of wind,water and the sun would be used to meet Mankinds needs. Unfortunately , he was far ahead of his times,yet he was able to convince people to come with him to establish this paradise.
Of the first 41 settlers to reach the tropics,15 died within five months,and Etzlers dream was doomed.However his ideas were strongly put forth in his books.His most famous work is "The paradise within the reach of all men."
