This is an excellent book about the history of one of the last California wetlands. Through the perseverance of citizens of Orange County, particularly Huntington Beach, a struggle with developers, politicians, oil companies was won to preserve, protect and restore an important ecological wonder. This book tells that story in such a way that keeps you coming back chapter after chapter.Jennifer Robins
