520    In the mid-1930s, North America's Great Plains faced one 
       of the worst man-made environmental disasters in world 
       history. Donald Worster's classic chronicle of the 
       devastating years between 1929 and 1939 tells the story of
       the Dust Bowl in ecological as well as human terms. Twenty
       -five years after his book helped to define the new field 
       of environmental history, Worster shares his more recent 
       thoughts on the subject of the land and how humans 
       interact with it. In a new afterword, he links the Dust 
       Bowl to current political, economic, and ecological issues
       -including the American livestock industry's exploitation 
       of the Great Plains, and the ongoing problem of 
       desertification, which has now become a global phenomenon.
       He reflects on the state of the plains today and the 
       threat of a new dustbowl. He outlines some solutions that 
       have been proposed, such as "the Buffalo Commons," where 
       deer, antelope, bison, and elk would once more roam freely,
       and suggests that we may yet witness a Great Plains where 
       native flora and fauna flourish while applied ecologists 
       show farmers how to raise food on land modeled after the 
       natural prairies that once existed.
