The Book of Texas Bays (Gulf Coast Studies)

by Jim Blackburn

While giving life and sustenance to plants, animals, and people, the bays and estuaries of Texas have other stories to tell--about freshwater inflows, deep port construction, disappearing oyster beds, beach resorts, industrial pollution, and more. Each story brings opposing forces into the courtroom for vigorous debates on the future of some of our most valuable and irreplaceable resources.
