Isbn: 9780521804905 - the bulldozer in the countryside: suburban sprawl and the rise of american environmentalism (48 risultati)

Paperback. Condizione: Good. The concern today about suburban sprawl is not new. In the decades after World War II, the spread of tract-house construction changed the nature of millions of acres of land, and a variety of Americans began to protest against the environmental costs of suburban development.
