Reviews

Wetlands Drainage, River Modification, and Sectoral Conflict in the Lower Illinois Valley, 1890-1930 is the only detailed account of the demise of natural wetlands along the Illinois River and the development of levee systems and their effect on wetlands. It is one of the most superior scholarly works I have reviewed. -Robert Mohlenbrock
