Wohl is distinctly more objective and even hopeful than many of her environmentalist contemporaries would be in her approach to this wide-ranging subject. . . . Hers is a fascinating geosocial approach to environmental history. She is rational and reasonable, so the reforms she urges are far more likely to come about than they otherwise would. She certainly does not shy away from exposing the problems, but her approach is positive. -- Workboat World Excellent. . . .
