Product Information
An intimate reckoning with aquifer depletion in America's heartlandThe Ogallala aquifer has nourished life on the American Great Plains for millennia. But less than a century of unsustainable irrigation farming has taxed much of the aquifer beyond repair. The imminent depletion of the Ogallala and other aquifers around the world is a defining p

Reviews
Anthropologist Bessire ( Behold the Black Caiman ) combines ethnography and memoir in this deeply personal look at the depletion of the Ogallala aquifer. . . . A devastating portrait of how shortsighted decisions lead to devastating losses., "A profound and eloquent meditation on how and why societies behave in seemingly irrational ways in the face of dwindling resources, impoverished environments, and attenuated social relationships." ---Paul Sutter, Kansas History, "Highly recommended . . . Bessire's achievement in Running Out lies in his ability to open to the reader the water-consciousness of the people of the region. . . . Reading [Running Out] is time well spent." ---Michael J. Smith, Nebraska History, "[ Running Out ] bursts with passages that linger after reading. . . . haunting." ---Christopher Flavelle, New York Times, " Eminently readable. . . .The sense of loss that necessarily pervades Running Out is balanced is by Bessire's lyrical prose, whose consistently crisp beauty serves as a welcome respite. " ---Ed Meek, The Arts Fuse, "To try to get a grip on the cultural forces behind the [aquifer] depletion, [Bessire] began interviewing stakeholders in the vicinity of his family's property and wrote this very personal account, which includes both analysis of complicity and elegiac passages about his homeland's history and our dry future. . . . Stirring." ---Flora Taylor, American Scientist, "Lucas Bessire's poignant critique of dramatic groundwater decline in southwest Kansas and resistance to addressing it offers perspective on our failure to confront climate change. . . . This tale on the ebbing of the Ogallala Aquifer is a valuable addition to the literature of aquifer depletion, compelling for its insider's perspective and probing of contradictory human decisions that discount the future for immediate reward." ---Dennis Dimick, Cleveland Review of Books, "[Running Out] should be required reading for every environmental scientist." ---David Dent, International Journal of Environmental Studies, "Running Out is a book for our times - it should have an impact on policy, and become a classic." ---John Miles, National Parks Traveler, "Eminently readable. . . .The sense of loss that necessarily pervades Running Out is balanced by Bessire's lyrical prose, whose consistently crisp beauty serves as a welcome respite." ---Ed Meek, The Arts Fuse

Item in great, new condition. Packaged decently for shipping. Seller did take a week to ship. I did message to inquire about when it would be shipped. Seller responded quickly and said something about they ship when eBay tells them to or something like that. I'm aware it is an excuse. It's obvious that they have a big store and maybe just don't have enough people to quickly ship out orders. I did order something else from them, but I know not to expect it in a timely manner.
