McGoverns analyses poor - some historical data interesting,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Campo Indian Landfill War: The Fight for Gold in California's Garbage (Hardcover)
McGoverns analyses seem to dwell more on justifying his actions in EPA than in providing the positions of the protaganists. He sets himself up as the great neutral party but he clearly thought it was his role to determine if the Campos had proven themselves "worthy" of treatment as a government. This was a clear violation of the policy of "government to government" that the federal government had directed Mr. McGovern to follow. Some of the factual accounts and history were interesting. The California Indian history was especially interesting, but what was the relevance? It seemed that he was making the implication that the Indians were trying to put in a dump in revenge for past slights yet he puts no meat on the implication. This seems to demonstrate a prejudice he never quite overcame.
