Afficher les exemplaires de cette édition ISBNThe Paytons spent five years driving gravelly back roads and two-lane blacktops searching out and photographing the crumbling foundations of old water mills, springs, caves, and antique bridges. They floated the James and explored its tributaries. Research revealed a forgotten history of failed attempts to protect Ozark waterways, which culminated in the growth of volunteer organizations and governmental agencies with river conservation agendas. The impact of federal legislation like NEPA and the Clean Water Act are covered as well as changing patterns of river recreation. Many of the problems and solutions identified in this book are applicable to other Ozark rivers.
Railroads, highways, dam projects, tourism, the growth of towns, agriculture, industry, media and art, political will and cultural values all interact. The river we see today is an outcome of all these forces. Even though transformed and changing, the watershed of the James Fork of the White is still in many places scenic and beautiful; where it lacks aesthetics, it is intriguing. After years of research, a mystery remains. The Paytons never found an explanation that holds water why this river is called the James.
