The Swamp: The Everglades, Florida, and the Politics of Paradise by Grunwald, Michael

Published by Simon & Schuster, 2006

The Swamp is the story of the destruction and possible resurrection of the Everglades, the saga of man's abuse of nature in southern Florida and his unprecedented efforts to make amends. Michael Grunwald, a prize-winning national reporter for The Washington Post, takes readers on a journey from the Ice Ages to the present, illuminating the natural, social and political history of one of America's most beguiling but least understood patches of land.
