Mining America: The Industry and the Environment, 1800-1980
Duane A. Smith
Throughout the nineteenth century, miners were given virtually free rein to profit without having to worry about impacts to the land, water, and air. This title gives an account of the damage wrought by almost two centuries of mining. It focuses on the conflicting attitudes behind the destruction and on society's responses.
