"John Anfinson brings an evenhanded approach to the debate over how much river should serve commerce and how much it should preserve nature, a topic that has been politicized by shipping and environmental advocates." - Minneapolis Star Tribune "Anyone interested in the fate of the Mississippi River would do well to read this book." -Minnesota Magazine "This book demonstrates wide research and thoughtful synthesis of many sources . . . certainly an important book." -Minnesota History
