This visually dynamic Atlas covers the environmental history of the USA and Canada from 1492 to the present in seven chronologically-arranged chapters. Over one hundred entries discuss the events that have helped shape the North American landscape from the transformation of the wilderness into farmland by early settlers, to the Johannesburg world environmental conference. The work provides a thorough survey of the role of the environment in the social history of North America, examining how it influenced human behaviour while being transformed by it. Each chapter follows the same format containing articles analysing the following themes: Agriculture * Wildlife * Forestry * Land Use Management * Technology * Industry * Pollution * Human Habitats * Ideology and Politics.
