This innovative book provides a dynamic-and often surprising-view
of the range of environmental issues facing the United States
today. A distinguished group of scholars examines the growing
temporal, spatial, and thematic breadth of topics historical
geographers are now exploring. Seventeen original chapters examine
topics such as forest conservation, mining landscapes, urban
environment justice, solid waste, exotic species, environmental
photography, national and state park management, recreation and
tourism, and pest control. Commemorating the twenty-fifth
anniversary of the publication of the seminal work The American
Environment: Interpretations of Past Geographies, the book clearly
shows much has changed since 1992. Indeed, not only has the range
of issues expanded, but an increasing number of geographers are
forging links with environmental historians, promoting a level of
intellectual cross-fertilization that benefits both disciplines. As
a result, environmental historical geographies today are richer and
more diverse than ever. The American Environment Revisited offers a
comprehensive overview that gives both specialist and general
readers a fascinating look at our changing relationships with
nature over time.
