Awarded the 1992 Bancroft Prize and the Chicago Tribune Heartland Award for Best Nonfiction Book of 1991. In this groundbreaking work, William Cronon gives us an environmental perspective on the history of nineteenth-century America. By exploring the ecological and economic changes that made Chicago America's most dynamic city and the Great West its hinterland, Mr. Cronon opens a new window onto our national past. This is the story of city and country becoming ever more tightly bound in a system so powerful that it reshaped the American landscape and transformed American culture. The world that emerged is our own.

Cronon's writing tends to get repetitive and preachy at times. But this book is much stronger than his first one on New England; and got really nice pictures. Good job Norton.
评分環境史經典。。用Richard White的话说，一般读者会以为这是城市史或经济史，但是它本质上是环境史。跟他上一本书一样，背后的大主题都是资本主义如何改变自然。批判和分析资本主义，这是美国环境史的特色之一。 关于芝加哥与东北部的联系、铁路的作用、谷物、木材和肉类的生产流动，非常细致，对我自己的研究有很大的启发。不过他的写作风格有点散，读起来很费力。。没有时间细读，等过了考试后，要再读一遍。
评分Awesome book though a bit redundant. Cronon is a great story teller!!
评分写的还行，最大槽点是太长，以我的体会来说，书的厚度不要超过320，否则很让人厌烦。
