Environmentalism in America

Stephen Currieā€™s American History series Environmentalism in America examines the eras, events, and movements relating to ecology awareness, activism, and legislation. The 96 page book is a hardback, and a very typical school library historical short volume that expands on information commonly found in high school history textbooks. Currie gives a brief but solid historical perspective of the subject that has ultimately created and shaped public opinion and activism as well as governmental public policy regarding local and national ecology issues. Overall, this is a well-written but brief informational book.
