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.

评分environmental historian. 别样的视角,很factual,argument不多,论证比较冗长,historian!
评分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.
