520    The Everglades was America's last frontier, a wild country
       long after the West was won. In this book, Michael 
       Grunwald chronicles how a series of visionaries tried to 
       drain and "reclaim" it, and how Mother Nature refused to 
       bend to their will; in the most harrowing tale, a 1928 
       hurricane drowned 2,500 people in the Everglades. But the 
       Army Corps of Engineers finally tamed the beast with 
       levees and canals, converting half the Everglades into 
       sprawling suburbs and sugar plantations. And though the 
       southern Everglades was preserved as a national park, it 
       soon deteriorated into an ecological mess. The River of 
       Grass stopped flowing, and 90 percent of its wading birds 
       vanished. Now America wants its swamp back. Grunwald shows
       how a new breed of visionaries transformed Everglades 
       politics, producing the $8 billion rescue plan. That plan 
       is already the blueprint for a new worldwide era of 
       ecosystem restoration. And The Swamp is a cautionary tale 
       for that era. Through gripping narrative and dogged 
       reporting, Grunwald shows how the Everglades is still 
       threatened by the same hubris, greed, and well-intentioned
       folly that led to its decline.
