From the Publisher
10th Anniversary of Valdez Disaster
March 1999 marks the 10th Anniversary of the Exxon Valdez Oil spill on Prince William Sound. This book, which suggests that cleanup efforts probably perpetrated more damage than the oil did, is a timeless study of the resilience of nature and of how well-intentioned intervention can have negative consequences.
