Zusammenfassung: | "North America's Great Lakes country has experienced centuries of upheaval, its landscapes utterly changed from what they were five hundred years ago. The region's abundant fish and wildlife and its magnificent forests and prairies astonished European newcomers who called it an earthly paradise but then ushered in an era of disease, warfare, resource depletion, and land development that transformed it forever. Covering a vast geography encompassing two Canadian provinces and nine American states, The Once and Future Great Lakes Country provides both a detailed ecological history and a broad panorama of this vast region. It blends the voices of early visitors with the hopes of citizens now"--Publisher's description |
