Wyoming's colorful story of water management illuminates the
powerful forces that impact water use in the rural American West.
The state's rich history of managing this valuable natural resource
provides insights and lessons for the twenty-first-century American
West as it faces drought and climate change. Public Waters shows
how, as popular hopes and dreams meet tough terrain, a central idea
that has historically structured water management can guide water
policy for Western states today. Drawing on forty years as a
journalist with training in water law and economics, Anne MacKinnon
paints a lively picture of the arcane twists in the notable record
of water law in Wyoming. She maintains that other Western states
should examine how local people control water and that states must
draw on historical understandings of water as a public resource to
find effective approaches to essential water issues in the West.
