Book Synopsis
A cultural and ecological history of the Mediterranean region and humankind's broken covenant with nature

Trade Review
“A fascinating reappraisal of the ecological history of the cradle of Western traditions. Its conclusions are hopeful—perhaps our war with nature is less deeply rooted than we thought.”—Bill McKibben -- Bill McKibben
“James McGregor’s work on Mediterranean deep history is an exhaustive and highly convincing presentation of the sophistication and sustainability of our old Neolithic European cultures before the ‘disaster’ that civilization proved to be, overwhelmed them all.”—Gary Snyder -- Gary Snyder
