| Annotation |
The North American grasslands that once covered vast areas of the central United States are now our most endangered ecosystems. But not far from any spot in the grasslands is a river. Grassland rivers are as central to the story of prairies as bison and bluestem. Defined as rivers that drain prairie watersheds, these waterways are crucial to plains ecosystems and no less endangered than the grasslands surrounding them. They are also enigmatic: some are restricted by local access laws and others have simply been forgotten. In any given year, fewer than a dozen people might lay eyes on tens of thousands of miles of America’s grassland rivers. But, as environmental writer George Frazier shows, following their twists and turns is one of the best ways to experience the wild essence of the prairies.
