Chesapeake: An Environmental Biography

Chesapeake: An Environmental Biography

Editorial Reviews
Eugene Cronin (Institute of Natural Resources, Solomons Island) (quoted in the New York Times Magazine, 1983)
“The Bay is a signal system. If we can't save it, we can't save any of our estuaries.”

Review
"Wennersten's careful research and obvious concern for the region show clearly in his reasoned discussions of the multitude of problems facing the area, as conservationists continue to battle with special-interest groups over how best to “save the Bay.” Yet he resists the urge to demonize any group, and tells the story of each fairly, explaining the harsh necessities that faced early settlers, pointing out the realities of each group's contribution to the problems, and discussing clearly the flaws in the arguments of extremists on both sides.”
Marlene Satter, ForeWord Magazine "
