This treatise argues that the American West serves as a testament to a dependence upon water as the "shaping force" of a region's history and development. It defines the West as a "modern hydraulic society" dependent on man-made systems of irrigation such as dams, irrigation ditches and canals. Donald Worster examines the development history of the American West, identifying the élite of technology and wealth who have controlled its most essential resource: water.
