This review is from: The Wealth of Nature: Environmental History and the Ecological Imagination (Paperback)
I really loved this book. The author besides being quite vivid, poetically, delves into the realm of American historical events from an ecological viewpoint. I believe this is a very important issue. The question arises, "What then shall we do?" The author doesn't leave you hanging with no standards and gives solid reasons why there is hope that our behavior as a nation can change.
