New Book From Greber Award Winner Chris Turner

 

Chris Turner, the 2012 Greber Magazine Award winner has written a new book that will be available in mid-September.

Called The Patch: The People, Pipelines, and Politics of the Oil Sands it is the story of Fort McMurray and the oil sands in northern Alberta, the world’s second largest proven reserve of oil. 

Focused on Fort McMurray, it documents the collision between two conflicting worldviews–one of industrial triumph and another of environmental stewardship.
