—Jeffrey C. Sanders, Associate Professor of History Washington State University
Jeff Crane delves deeply into a wide breadth of topics vital to understanding L’.S. environmental history. The Environment in American History promises to become a leading textbook, especially for instructors who aim to give students a more in-depth view of the ways in which nature has under-girded American history and a better understanding of current environmental problems.
—Marsha Richmond, Associate Professor History of Science, Wayne State University
From pre-European contact to the present day, people living in what is now the United States have constantly manipulated their environment. The use of natural resources- animals, plants, minerals, water, and land- has produced both prosperity and destruction, reshaping the land and human responses to it. The Environment American History is a clear and comprehensive account that vividly shows students how the environment played a defining role in the development of American society.
Organized in thirteen chronological chapters, and extensively illustrated, the book covers themes including:
X
V
r
Native peoples manipulation of the environment across various regions The role of Old World livestock and diseases in European conquests Plantation agriculture and slavery Westward expansion and the exploitation of natural resources Environmental influences on the Civil War and World War II
The emergence and development of environmental activism v Industrialization, and the growth of cities and suburbs Jr Ecological restoration and climate change
Each chapter includes a selection oi primary documents, and the book is supported by a robust companion website that provides further resources for students and instructors. Drawing on current scholarship, Jeff Crane has created a vibrant and engaging survey that is a key resource for all students of American environmental history.
