News and commentary on books and writers


Wednesday, June 11, 2008

The first of two excerpts from Chris Wood’s incisive new book DRY SPRING: THE COMING WATER CRISIS OF NORTH AMERICA, entitled ‘They Don’t Want Our Water’, is now available from the Tyee website!

Introducing the excerpts, David Beers, the editor of the Tyee, provides the background to the environmental series Chris has written for their website, Rough Weather Ahead, and how Chris came to write DRY SPRING.

The second excerpt, discussing co-operation between the US and Canada over water, will be available tomorrow, but in the meantime, you can read Chris Wood’s most recent article for the Tyee, posted Tuesday, in which he critiques the British Columbia’s Liberal government’s new water strategy.

(AND you can also read a nice new review of DRY SPRING at A’n’E Vibe!)
