5.0 out of 5 stars Marvelous regional overviews, full of human drama, November 5, 2003
By 
This review is from: Land, Man, and Sand: Desertification and Its Solution (Hardcover)
A powerfully written tour of selected anti-desertification efforts around the world. Walls paints a series of fascinating big pictures from particular areas of China, Australia, Tunisia, Iran, Israel, Iraq, or the USA. In each case he captures both an overview of environmental trends on the ground, and a dramatic human story involving tragedy, courage, strategy, and ingenuity.
