A sad tale of human mismanagement that has led to the devastating destruction of the Colorado River ecosystem. The river that was mighty enough to carve out the Grand Canyon now frequently runs dry before it reaches its mouth in the Gulf of California. This book is the story of what happened to cause this, and the battles over water rights that pitted humans against the river. ( ) inga recensioner | lägg till en recension

Here is the definitive history of the development of the Colorado River and the claims made on its waters, from its source in the Wyoming Rockies to the California and Arizona borders where, so saline it kills plants, it peters out just short of the Gulf of California. Ever increasing demands on the river to supply cities in the desert render this new edition all too timely. Philip Fradkin has updated this valuable book with a new preface.
