Heartland River: A Cultural and Environmental History of the Big Sioux River Valley
Description:
In his introduction to Heartland River, Midwest / Great Plains historian and son of the Big Sioux River valley Jon K. Lauck, writes, “Recognizing the Big Sioux River is not only a critical exercise in finding place in an increasingly digital and placeless world, but also an important exertion of cultural identity, a quest for the recognition of a lost watershed in the center of our nation during an era when the coasts dominate our society and the American interior remains neglected.” In the 19 essays that follow, readers will find a cornucopia of delights and warnings. From “A River Through Time” to “Don’t Drink the Water,” for example, the writers document early river cultures and bacterial contamination today. The collection’s six sections cover almost every conceivable aspect of this 420-mile-long prairie river dividing South Dakota and Iowa and Minnesota and a major tributary to the Missouri River, never before the subject of a book: Natural History and Indigenous Peoples; Explorers, Settlers, Outlaws, and War; Writers, Scholars, and Artists; Politics; Water Quality; and Personal Reflections.
