Detailed capitalist eutopia containing a complete constitution (49-128). A review of the book by Robert L. Meiers, M.D. was published in The Capitalist Country Newsletter in 1.2 (August 1968): [1-3], a journal edited by Oliver. The book was meant to outline the reasons for and constitution of a new country that he called Minerva that the author hoped to establish and for which he minted a coinage. He found a reef near Tonga, and in 1971 built it up with dredged sand, built a concrete platform, planted a flag, and declared the Republic of Minerva. In 1972 the King of Tonga emptied its one prison and took the prisoners to the reef, where they destroyed the platform.
