The Buried River: Restoring Nature, Rebuilding Community

A book-in-progress by WPLP founding director, Anne Whiston Spirn.

“Since 1987, WPLP has been the setting for my research, practice, teaching, and community service. I want to write a book that tells a compelling story and presents important lessons for restoring nature and building community.”
