Reviews

Though some may quibble with the exclusion of chunks of the Pacific coast states beyond the Sierras and Cascades in the editors' definition of the core West, it makes sense. The core region is the Rocky Mountain West, arguably the region the most affected in recent years by technological and social change. The land and culture there is not recognizable to those who have spent 20 years away. Editor Riebsame and Director of Cartography Robb, under the auspices of the University of Colorado's Center for the American West, have hit all the appropriate issues here: nuclear waste, growth of technological firms, and cultural blossoming. Clearly, this collaborative effort had input from planners, historians, and sociologists. Filled with maps and illuminating sidebar items, this attractive book will appeal to scholars and the general public alike and belongs in most reference collections.?David S.
