Table of ContentsReviewsBiebighauser''s work is a thorough and accurate account about the good, the bad, and the ugly of wetland destruction and restoration. He objectively walks us through the history of wetland drainage, revealing clever solutions to dealing with soggy soil. In the process, he sets the stage for later portions of the book, where we learn how to be equally clever about bringing water back onto the landscape. The photographs are also excellent, showing historic perspective and illustrating what to do to bring wetlands back, or even put them where they never were. -- Bruce A. Kingsbury, Director, Center for Reptile and Amphibian Conservation and Management, Indiana-Purdue University Fort Wayne <p> A wealth of detailed background information, practical advice, and real-world examples of how problems have been overcome. --Ecological Restoration -- Author InformationThomas R.
