Synopsis: Hal Rothman chronicles the American response to the environment in the 20th century, showing how the idea of conservation management was transformed after World War II into a program for "quality of life." His cogent narrative history is punctuated throughout with accounts of crucial episodes in the growth of environmentalism-Hetch-Hetchy, the Echo Park Dam, the oil spill at Santa Barbara, Love Canal, and others. "A thoughtful tracking of the American environmental sympathies during this century."-Kirkus Reviews. American Ways Series.
