Synopsis
To Love the Wind and the Rain is a groundbreaking and vivid analysis of the relationship between African Americans and the environment in US history. It focuses on three major themes: African Americans in the rural environment, African Americans in the urban and suburban environments, and African Americans and the notion of environmental justice. Meticulously researched, the essays cover subjects including slavery, hunting, gardening, religion, the turpentine industry, outdoor recreation, women, and politics. ""To Love the Wind and the Rain"" will serve as an excellent foundation for future studies in African American environmental history.
