Probably a lot of readers of /r/water have read Cadillac Desert.

I own a copy of, and have made two false starts reading, The King Of California as recommend by the anonymous author of the blog On The Public Record.

I highly recommend A Great Aridness, a worthy heir to Cadillac Desert.

Also on my to-read list is Rising Tide. I would like to find a book that does for the Great Lakes what Marc Reisner did for water in the American West with his book Cadillac Desert.

A few things I've read this year that have little to do with water:

>Actually the South went Democrat until the 80s with Ronald Reagan.

Which is irrelevant to my point. Hoover in 1927 started the Republican effort of reaching out to southern Whites. The idea then was that they already had the Black vote locked up so they could ignore them and work to get the White racist vote. He developed this strategy while working on the Flood of 1927. (He basically used his work there as his presidential campaign.) The strategy did not work immediately but eventually id did.

Study some more history please.
