Reviews
Winner of the 2014 Barbara Sudler Award given by History Colorado "The first book in 25 years by MacArthur-winning historian Limerick is an entertaining history of the Denver Water Board. (Stealing, even stealing water, is always good copy.) Best of all, this deftly wrought history banishes our complacency about where water originates." -- The Daily Beast "Historian Patricia Nelson Limerick has done the impossible. She's made a history of the Denver Water Department interesting." -- The Denver Post "Limerick offers a thought-provoking look at the complex and, at times, surprising relationship between the development of western cities and water. The author is known for her ability to speak to both the academy and general audiences. For example, in her celebrated book The Legacy of Conquest she shook the academy with a reinterpretation of the history of the American West. She does not disappoint her readers in A Ditch in Time . Through the case of the development of Denver, Colorado waterworks, Limerick meticulously details the coevolution of hydrologic technology and urban planning. Those that follow her detailed history, from the early 19th century up to present times, are rewarded with a greater understanding of and appreciation for what she calls "envirotech" history. This book demonstrates her continued emphasis on "applying historical perspective to contemporary dilemmas and conflicts." Interesting photographs, useful maps, and 20-plus pages of notes support the text. Summing Up : Highly recommended." -- CHOICE, "The first book in 25 years by MacArthur-winning historian Limerick is an entertaining history of the Denver Water Board.
