Hilton, George Woodman. The Great
Lakes Car Ferries. Berkeley, Cal.: Howell-North,
1962.
Though
published four decades ago, this is still considered to be
the definitive work on the history of car ferries designed
to transport railroad cars across the lakes in the days before
tunnels and bridges had been built for this purpose. Highly
readable and informative. |

Lerner, Steve.
Diamond: A Struggle for Environmental Justice in Louisiana's Chemical Corridor. Cambridge, Mass.: MIT Press,
2005.
Located
between a Shell plant and an oil refinery, the community of
Diamond is in a "chemical corridor." The effects
of living in this toxic environment went unrecognized until
a grassroots effort called attention to the high concentration
of lung cancer and nervous system damage in the community.
The legal and scientific issues are examined in a way which will keep you turning the pages for
more. |
