About this book
"While the book draws most of its examples from one particular region, it explains flooding throughout a much larger region - the midwestern Corn Belt - and thus its sobering yet energizing lessons apply well beyond eastern Iowa. Byexamining the relationships among rivers, floodplains, weather, and modern society; by stressing matters ofscience and fact rather than social or policy issues; and by addressing multiple environmental problems and benefits, the twenty-five essays in A Watershed Year inform and educate all those who experienced the 2008 floods and all those concerned with the larger causes of flooding."--BOOK JACKET.
