Pg 9 - Jack spills his cereal all over the floor
Pg 14 - Daisy pours Jack's milk from his cereal bowl down the sink

Which is it.

Lacey is on page 58 of 240 of First Along the River: A Brief History of the U.S. Environmental Movement
This chapter covered the Industrial Revolution and did a good job of giving praise to the achievements of the time while still discussing the negative impact the time had on the environment.

Chapter 1 presented extremely biased views with no attempts to hide the bias of religions. The second chapter also had religious bias, but not as much. I appreciate the short nature of the chapters and feel it does a good job of presenting an overall picture, but there is clear bias, which there should not be.

The first chapter is very biased against Christianity, so much so that if this were not required reading for a course I would return the book.

This chapter was interesting, but I feel it didn't need so many details about Nadar.

Chapter 3 was very interesting, though I feel like the environmental inequality was caused primarily by poverty, with racism being a secondary inequality. The author did a decent job of explaining this in the summary, but not throughout the chapter.

This chapter was much easier to read, though I reread the book up to this part a d feel more maps could help explain the introduction and first chapter.

Required reading for a masters course on environment and disasters.

Slow reading, there's a lot that could be better explained by including more visuals. Also lots of quotes from original 1800s documents, which is great but their vocabulary includes words and phrases we no longer use. Also, lots of geographic specific vocabulary, so if that's not something you use regularly there is some difficulty.

Currently seems biased towards Clinton with no mention of any scandal yet.
