Minnesota’s Twin Cities have long been powerful engines of
change. From their origins in the early nineteenth century, the
Twin Cities helped drive the dispossession of the region’s Native
American peoples, turned their riverfronts into bustling industrial
and commercial centers, spread streets and homes outward to the
horizon, and reached well beyond their urban confines, setting in
motion the environmental transformation of distant hinterlands. As
these processes unfolded, residents inscribed their culture into
the landscape, complete with all its tensions, disagreements,
contradictions, prejudices, and social inequalities. These stories
lie at the heart of Nature’s Crossroads. The book features an
interdisciplinary team of distinguished scholars who aim to open
new conversations about the environmental history of the Twin
Cities and Greater Minnesota.
