In Silver Fox of the Rockies, Daniel Tyler tells Carpenter's story and that of the great interstate water compacts he helped create. Those compacts, produced in the early... Delphus E.

This volume features the best and most influential essays by Donald Pisani, one of our nation's leading environmental and western historians.
