| Sumario: | "The North American West in the Twenty-First Century, edited by Brenden W. Rensink, takes stories of the late twentieth-century 'modern West' and carefully pulls them toward the present--explicitly tracing continuity with or unexpected divergence from trajectories established in the 1980s and 1990s. Considering a broad range of topics, including environment, Indigenous peoples, geography, migration, and politics, these essays straddle multiple modern frontiers, not least of which is the temporal frontier between our unsettled past and uncertain future. These forays into the twenty-first-century West will inspire more scholars to pull histories to the present and by doing so reinsert scholarly findings into contemporary public awareness."-- |
