Reviews

"""Through compelling case studies the authors show how to integrate business and environmental history in grounded ways (actual physically grounded ways)--beyond analyses of firms or corporate organization. They encourage readers to consider the consumer culture that led to big box stores and the environmental impacts of the stores' rise to prominence."" --Benjamin R. Cohen, Lafayette College ""A significant contribution to environmental history, as well as business and US history generally. Intellectually stimulating and engagingly written."" --Ai Hisano, University of Tokyo"
