Losing Ground: Identity and Land Loss in Coastal Louisiana
David M. Burley
What is it like to lose your front porch to the ocean? To see playgrounds and churches subside and succumb to brackish and rising water? The residents of coastal Louisiana know. In Losing Ground, they communicate the significance of place and environment. They speak with an urgency that exemplifies a fear of losing not just property and familiar surroundings, but their identity as well.
