Crabgrass Crucible: Suburban Nature and the Rise of Environmentalism in Twentieth-Century America 1st edition
Christopher C. Sellers
Although suburb-building created major environmental problems, Christopher Sellers demonstrates that the environmental movement originated within suburbs, not just in response to unchecked urban sprawl. Sellers focuses on the spreading edges of New York and Los Angeles over the middle of the twentieth century to create an intimate portrait of what it was like to live amid suburban nature.
