Davis</em></p> <p><strong>5 Stars</strong></p> <p>A non-fiction work about the Gulf of Mexico and the US states bordering it.</p> <h2 id="my-review">My Review</h2> <p>An excellent book that covers the physical, social, and economic history of this area. I learned many things about which I had no knowledge of. The book does have an environmental slant and you will learn much about the exploitive nature of humanity. The author is a Professor of Environmental History.</p>
