First published in 1985, William deBuys’s Enchantment and
Exploitation has become a New Mexico classic. It offers a complete
account of the relationship between society and environment in the
Sangre de Cristo Mountains of northern New Mexico, a region unique
in its rich combination of ecological and cultural diversity. Now,
more than thirty years later, this revised and expanded edition
provides a long-awaited assessment of the quality of the journey
that New Mexican society has traveled in that time—and continues
to travel. In a new final chapter deBuys examines ongoing
transformations in the mountains’ natural systems—including,
most notably, developments related to wildfires—with significant
implications for both the land and the people who depend on it. As
the climate absorbs the effects of an industrial society, deBuys
argues, we can no longer expect the environmental future to be a
reiteration of the environmental past.
