ISBN10: 0231140347, ISBN13: 9780231140348, [publisher: Columbia University Press, New York] Hardcover Hardcover.

Beginning with the precolonial land-use practice of Native Americans and concluding with our twenty-first century concerns over our global ecological crisis, American Environmental History addresses contentious issues such as the preservation of the wilderness, the expulsion of native peoples from national parks, and population growth, and considers the formative forces of gender, race, and class.

The volume also ...
