Watershed: The Undamming of America by Elizabeth Grossman

The author takes a tour of a number of dam sites, some of which have been removed, some of which may be removed, and some which she implies may be removed in the future, though there are no plans in the offing. Overall, it's a worthwhile book, and reasonably interesting.
