In The Accumulation of Small Resistances, Elias Vance explores the quiet, tactile war between order and entropy. From the "useless specificity" of a stripped screw to the chemical smell of drying glazing putty, this collection of essays dismantles the domestic world into its rawest components: fr...

To many of the Federal soldiers watching the Stars and Stripes unfurl atop Lookout Mountain on the morning of November 25, 1863, it seemed that the battle to relieve Chattanooga was complete.
