In Losing Eden award-winning historian Sara Dant debunks the myth of the American West as “Eden” and instead embraces a more realistic and complex understanding of a region that has been inhabited and altered by people for tens of thousands of years. In this lively narrative Dant discusses the key events and topics in the environmental history of the American West, from the Beringia migration, Columbian Exchange, and federal territorial acquisition to post–World War II expansion, resource exploitation, and current climate change issues.

A landmark book performed well
Revisado: 01-03-24
This is the second edition of Sara Dant’s Losing Eden—not just a reissue, but truly brought up to date (2023). The book itself is a fascinating journey through US West history told from the perspective of human-nature interactions from geological time through last year. If you’re new to the field, it’s a great starting place, but there’s plenty here for readers (academic and public) who know the topic. Well performed by the voice artist as well.
