Book Reviews of The Control of Nature
Book Review: A Great Set of Stories
Summary: 5 Stars
I just love McPhee's story telling books. This is one my favorite books of his (Looking for a Ship is my #1). It doesn't get too technical like some of his other books about nature. He takes you from LA to Lousiana! This book is well worth reading.
