I'm reading Sea of Grass:The Conquest, Ruin, and Redemption of Nature on the American Prairie by Dave Hage and Josephine Marcotty (NY:Random House, 2025) by MN journalists who tell about its history and travel around Midwest farm states and talk to farmers and ranchers "on the ground." Outstanding.
