An Unnatural Metropolis Wrestling
New Orleans from Nature
By Craig E. Colten
Situated at the gateway to the Mississippi River, yet
standing atop a former swamp, New Orleans was from the first what
geographer Pierce Lewis called “an impossible but inevitable
city.” How New Orleans came to be, taking shape between the
mutual and contradictory forces of nature and urban development
is the subject of this book. Before the city could swell
in size and commercial importance, as its 19th century boosters
envisioned, builders had to wrest it from its waterlogged site,
protect it from floods, expel disease, and supply basic services
using local resources. Colten shows how every manipulation of the
environment made an impact on the city’s social geography as
well, often with unequal, adverse consequences for minorities,
and how each still requires maintenance and improvement today.
Craig Colten is the Carol O. Sauer Professor of Geography at
LSU. Published 2005; 245 pages 6x9. Cloth; $39.95 from www.lsu.edu/lsupress/
