Description:... "An angry book . . . firmly grounded in scholarship . . . . [and placing] in historical perspective the decisions that . . . [resulted in] overdevelopment and pollution. . . . Read the book. Get angry. Write your congressman!"-Southern California Quarterly. "This analysis is applicable to every park, wilderness, and national treasure; it is a warning for every conservationist to be on guard against the pressures for development".-Naturalist Review.
