By Michael,
The United States Minor Outlying Islands
"Read for a class. Interesting story, for sure, but the writing was pretty nondescript. Which is not to say that I prefer style over substance, but . . . I do?"
"I had to read this for my Civil Procedures class before the first day. The task seemed daunting with all the other reading I needed to do, but it was actually a pretty good book. It is a very interesting look at not only the industry, but how our country reacts in disaster. Not a lot has changed, I am sorry to say."
"My first required reading for law school. I really enjoyed it and learned a lot too. I feel much better informed about the options survivors have after an environmental disaster and it gives a neat window into a lawyer's work.
The book also left me with a big question about why survivors of Hurricanes Katrina in New Orleans haven't launched a suit against the Army Corps of Engineeers. I did a Google search and found out that a very small number of survivors actually have begun a lawsuit against the Army Corps, but I want to ask my professors, whenever school begins, why more people haven't and why that hasn't been a bigger deal."
