Glad I reads this award winning environmental classic. Will read more from John McPhee

This was an interesting read more for a snapshot of the era. It was somewhat disheartening to see that the two sides are in some ways as intractable as in the 60s and 70s. Those that see resources as things to be used until they're exhausted and others who want resources left untouched.

McPhee is a master Craftsman and one of the few nonfiction writers who can make environmental arguments from the 1960s feel new and vital 50 years later.
