Description

Snow explores and untangles the costs and benefits of a century of mining, milling, and smelting in the Coeur D'Alenes, a twenty-five mile portion of the Idaho panhandle. More than one hundred mines and mills spewed waste laced with lead and other heavy metals into the local waters and fouled the air surrounding Kellogg, Idaho, endangering human health and leaving a legacy of environmental pollution. Simultaneously, the same industrial processes provided economic sustenance to thousands of local resident in a string of working class communities.

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
