River Basins of the American West
Examining water issues through the lens of major Western U.S. Watersheds, River Basins of the
American West explores why water has been, and remains, the West's most essential and
controversial subject.
Editor Char Miller has organized writings collected from the pages
of High Country News into sections defined by the great watersheds of the West: the Colorado
River, the Rio Grande, the Columbia River, the Klamath River, and the Missouri River.

Water in the 21st Century West
Water in the 21st-Century West offers a timely look at
the central issue facing the American West -- the region's
diminishing water supply. It collects the best reporting
on the subject, drawn from the pages of High Country
News, the magazine that sets the standard for coverage of
environmental issues in the West.
From endangered species and Native
american water rights to sprawl and the
growing specter of climate change, this
book captures the range and nature of the
arguments that have defined water policies in
the region over the past decade.
