The prose is crystalline and the pages are richly illuminated with maps, adverts, and period photography... The visual matter serves to further accentuate the intractable issue at the heart of this book: how to help an urban population without utterly destroying a rural one. --The Chicago Reader [A] rewarding study [of] the history of New York City's reservoirs and the displacement that followed the city's increasing demand for water . . . well-crafted prose, rich archival illustrations, and eye-catching photographs of the reservoirs make this memorable. The chronicle is anything but dry. --Publishers Weekly
