Dust Bowl: The Southern Plains in the 1930sIn the mid 1930s, North America's Great Plains faced one of the worst man made environmental disasters in world history. Donald Worster's classic chronicle of the devastating years between 1929 and 1939 tells the story of the Dust Bowl in ecological as well as human terms.

In the mid 1930s, North America's Great Plains faced one of the worst man-made environmental disasters in world history. Donald Worster's classic chronicle of the devastating years between 1929 and 1939 tells the story of the Dust Bowl in ecological as well as human terms. Now, twenty-five years after his book helped to define the new field of environmental history, Worster shares his more recent thoughts on the subject of the land and how humans interact with it. In a new afterword, he links the Dust Bowl to current political, economic and ecological issues--including the American livestock industry's exploitation of the Great Plains, and the on-going problem of desertification, which has now become a global phenomenon. He reflects on the state of the plains today and the threat of a new dustbowl. He outlines some solutions that have been proposed, such as "the Buffalo Commons," where deer, antelope, bison and elk would once more roam freely, and suggests that we may yet witness a Great Plains where native flora and fauna flourish while applied ecologists show farmers how to raise food on land modeled after the natural prairies that once existed.Binding Type: Paperback

Perfect for a backpack or a purse
Color: Upgrade-black, Size: 14 Inch, Color: Upgrade-black, Size: 14 Inch
I love this black backpack. It has gold zippers and brown accents and it has a pocket in the front two on the side three inside and a pocket on the back of the laptop pocket. I have a disability and have to carry extra stuff so this is a perfect size for me to wear in my back every day. It’s black nylon so it should stay clean. I tend to drop things. I think this will be great, but even without a disability, this is a great backpack. It’s so cute.

Perfect day bag!
Color: Upgrade-black, Size: 15.6 Inch
Super convenient and lightweight. I used it for two back-to-back conferences last week and it was PERFECT for what I needed to tote along all day. Fits my regular sized computer (15-16 inch) and even held my water bottle (which is larger than a regular plastic water bottle).

Stylish, light (laptop, phone, notebook & pen) +
Color: Upgrade-apricot, Size: 15.6 Inch, Color: Upgrade-apricot, Size: 15.6 Inch
Perfect for work! I use it for laptop, charger and few items necessary at work. I have a few blocks to walk from parking to work location and this bag has replaced last backpack and purse. Much easier to carry one item than two or more. Plus, it has enough room if you need to use it for clothes and toiletries (road-trip) or carry-on.
