Opportunity, Montana - Big Copper, Bad Water, and the Burial of an American Landscape (Hardcover)

This is a memoir-meets-expose that examines our fraught relationship with our resources and our attempts to clean up a toxic environmental legacy in America's 'last best place'. Tyer looks at one town - Opportunity - and one industry - copper mining - to tell a larger story about America's attempts to clean up an environment degraded by decades of unsustainable extractive mining.
