In less than a century, the American West has transformed from a predominantly rural region to one where most people live in metropolitan centers. Cities and Nature in the American West offers provocative analyses of this transformation. Each essay explores the intersection of environmental, urban, and western history, providing a deeper understanding of the com plex processes by which the urban West has shaped and been shaped by its sustaining environment. The book also considers how the Wests urban development has altered the human experience and perception of nature, from the administration and marketing of national parks to the consumer roots of popular environ mentalism; the politics of land and water use; and the challenges of environmental inequities. A number of essays address the cultural role of wilderness, nature, and such activities as camping. Others examine the increasingly per vasive power of the Wests urban areas and urbanites to redefine the very foundations and future of the American West.
