The Dreamt Land: Chasing Water and Dust Across California by Mark Arax

5.0

This is one of the most important books ever written about California and its history. It’s long and at times requires mental labor, but it is well worth all the time spent on it.

I’m grateful to Arax for investing so much of himself in writing it. These are all stories that needed to be told critically but empathetically, and I think he’s created something that may inspire change (in perspective, in action, in communication), one reader at a time.
