This is the story of the most endangered ecosystem in North America, told with wit, an appreciation for both beauty and the absurd, and hope for the future. In nearly two dozen essays contributed by Archie Carr, Carl Hiaasen, Jeff Klinkenberg, Al Burt, Renee Ripple, Susan Orlean, and others, it describes the natural features of the five areas of the Everglades ecosystem. Drawing on all the talents of southern storytellers, the book recounts the often outlandish attempts to tame the “river of grass” and reveals how much is invested – and risked - in the ambitious Everglades Recovery Plan. |
