A Review of “Pesticide Drift and the Pursuit of Environmental Justice”

the formation of the Trustees of Reservation for the protection of forest lands in the Blue Hills and Middlesex Fells. This regional approach to suburban development was innovative for its time and involved leading Boston Brahmins such as Charles Eliot and Sylvester Baxter paired with national names such as Frederic Law Olmsted. In specific locations Rawson relates the nostalgic application of native names to highland summits such as Chicatawbut Peak in the Blue Hills, creating an idyllic landscape in the minds of the Boston elite. Eden on the Charles is a carefully researched study of Boston’s metropolitan development in the nineteenth century through the lens of specific events such as the establishment of the Boston Common and Boston Harbor. For geographers, this book provides original sources for key decisions relating to landscape change illustrated by historic maps for each chapter, although many are reproduced at miniature scale from older volumes. The narrative is often overwhelmed by perfunctory writing and repeated examples of class tension between elite and immigrant interests. Nevertheless, Rawson has added to the understanding of urban formation in the nineteenth century and the innovative solutions devised in Boston sufficiently to make Eden on the Charles a necessary source book for urban studies seminars.
