The Gulf: The Making of an American Sea by Jack E. Davis
Requirements: .ePUB reader, 24 MB
Overview: Winner of the Kirkus Prize for Nonfiction – the tragic collision between civilization and nature in the Gulf of Mexico becomes a uniquely American story in this environmental epic.
When painter Winslow Homer first sailed into the Gulf of Mexico, he was struck by its “special kind of providence.” Indeed, the Gulf presented itself as America’s sea – bound by geography, culture, and tradition to the national experience – and yet, there has never been a comprehensive history of the Gulf until now. And so, in this rich and original work that explores the Gulf through our human connection with the sea, environmental historian Jack E. Davis finally places this exceptional region into the American mythos in a sweeping history that extends from the Pleistocene age to the 21st century.
