"A diverse collection of case studies on human-environment
interactions in nineteenth- and twentieth-century Mexico that
should be of broad interest to environmental historians, historical
geographers, and specialists on Mexico alike."--Journal of
Historical Geography "A Land Between Waters is most compelling in
its explicit attempt to cross divides. . . . It offers a model for
working across barriers of region, language, methodology, and
conceptual focus rather than within them."--Historical Geography "A
landmark study . . . [that] will set a standard for studies in
Mexican environmental history and serve as a point of departure for
further studies."--Evan Ward, author of Border Oasis: Water and the
Political Ecology of the Colorado River Delta, 1940-1975
