A field guide to the
California Delta

The California Delta is one of the most
contested landscapes in the United States. Critical to the ecology and
economy of California, it is the largest estuary on the west coast and
the centerpiece of the vast system that delivers water to Los Angeles.
Delta Primer organizes documentary stories about this complicated
landscape according to four ideas of the place: that it is a garden, a
machine, a wilderness, and a toy. This book represents these ideas in
photographs, a brief history, a lexicon and a separate deck of
narrative playing cards
