Title: Mobilizing nature: The environmental history of war and militarization in modern France
Abstract: Chris Pearson?s Mobilizing Nature: The Environmental History of War and Militarization in Modern France is a recent offering from the ever-growing subfield of environmental history that is focusing on the relationship between militaries, war and environment. A number of large projects and research networks have emerged in recent years that have brought scholars working within these broad parameters ? from environmental histories of the American Civil War to contemporary studies of boundaries in the Gaza strip, to name two examples ? into closer contact and sustained dialogue. Despite the broad scope of potential subjects, the area has become more cohesive, and Pearson is a notably productive and active member of the community of environmental historians of war and military environments.
