From Benjamin Franklins campaign to combat pollution at the Philadelphias docks in the 1750s to the movement against climate change today, American environmentalists have sought to protect the natural world and promote a healthy human society. In This Green and Growing Land, historian Kevin Armitage shows how the story of American environmentalismpart philosophy, part social movementis in no small way a story of America itself, of the way citizens have selforganized, have thought of their communities and their government, and have used their power to protect and enrich the land. Armitage skillfully analyzes the economic and social forces begetting environmental change and emphasizes the responses of a variety of ordinary Americansas well as a few wellknown leadersto these complex issues. This concise and engaging survey of more than 250 years of activism tells the story of a magnificent American achievementand the ongoing problems that environmentalism faces.
