Omschrijving
In January 1969, the blowout on an offshore oil platform off the coast of Santa Barbara, California, and the resulting oil spill proved to be a transformative event in pollution control and the nascent environmental activism movement.
A history of the Santa Barbara Oil Spill of 1969 and its impact is an important addition to the historiography of American environmentalism. Spezio has done a good job of providing a close history of the spill while effectively contextualizing a number of issues including: offshore oil drilling, pollution technology, and water law. This volume will be of great interest to environmental historians and general readers interested in environmental politics and policy."" - Robert D. Lifset, University of Oklahoma
