The narrative highlights Marjory Stoneman Douglas's pivotal role in recognizing the Everglades' ecological value and advocating for its preservation. It examines the aftermath of the establishment of Everglades National Park and the Army Corps of Engineers' flood control efforts, which ultimately failed to protect the ecosystem. Michael Grunwald, drawing from his research, critiques various restoration attempts, including the Comprehensive Everglades Restoration Plan, revealing the complexities and shortcomings of these initiatives in safeguarding this vital landscape.
