How conflicting ideas of nature threaten to fracture America's
identity. Amber waves of grain, purple mountain majesties: American
invest much of their national identity in sites of natural beauty.
And yet American lands today are torn by conflicts over science,
religion, identity, and politics. Creationists believe that the
Biblical flood carved American landscapes less than 10,000 years
ago; environmentalists protest pipelines; Western states argue that
the federal government's land policies throttle free enterprise;
Native Americans demand protection for sacred sites. In this book,
David Nye looks at Americans' irreconcilably conflicting ideas
about nature.
