Text of Note
"Seven historians, one geographer, and a paleoclimatologist contribute a wealth of observation, analysis, and commentary on the environmental characteristics and history of the Southern Plains. They address such themes as failing communities, scarce water, endangered species, and disappearing ways of life - and the possible results of these developments not only in the Southern Plains but elsewhere on the globe."--Jacket.
