River in Ruin: The Story of the Carmel River (9780803238343): Ray A. March: Books. Saturated with facts, March's account of this threatened river forces readers to reconsider water as a commodity that requires protection.—Kirkus Reviews (Kirkus Reviews 20120214)In sharing its struggle so effectively, River in Ruin joins a stream of other exquisitely researched and vividly written books about collapsing western watersheds, works we ignore at our peril.—Colleen Mondor, Booklist (Colleen Mondor Booklist 20110926)“Painstakingly researched, this enlightening book by Ray March does westerners a considerable favor. We need more books like this. We need to understand how we created, and how to cure, the watershed chaos we currently inhabit.”—William Kittredge, author of A Hole in the Sky: A Memoir (William Kittredge 20110926)“The story of a river, when best told, is the story of the region it succors, and Ray March has told that story with deep research, clarity of vision, and personal involvement. When it is told particularly well, as March has done, it is also the story of other rivers.”—Philip L. Fradkin, author of A River No More: The Colorado River and the West (Philip L. Fradkin )
