American Green: The Obsessive Quest for the Perfect Lawn
“Ted Steinberg proves once again that he is a master storyteller as well as our foremost environmental historian.â€â€•Mike Davis
The rise of the perfect lawn represents one of the most profound transformations in the history of the American landscape. American Green, Ted Steinberg's witty exposé of this bizarre phenomenon, traces the history of the lawn from its explosion in the postwar suburban community of Levittown to the present love affair with turf colorants, leaf blowers, and riding mowers.Technical Specifications
