Land Use, Environment, and Social Change: The Shaping of Island County, Washington (Weyerhaeuser Environmental Books)
Whidbey and Camano, two of the largest of the numerous beautiful islands dotting Puget Sound, together form the major part of Island Country. Taking this county as a case study and following its history from Indian times to the present, Richard White explores the complex relationship between human induced environmental change and social change.
