didn't get the pic (dang it, Andrea, our attempts are fruitless!), but two books by the brilliant writer John McPhee go to the heart of Peter's first paragraph:
The Control of Nature
and
Encounters With The Archdruid
Encounters is the story of the jolly green giant David Brower's hiking/rafting trips with mineral extractors and that ol' scallywag Floyd Dominy, former head of the Dept. of Reclamation and a huge dam building proponent. a classic.
