Synopsis

Sunken Cities explores the fascinating world of submerged settlements, blending history, mythology, and archaeological discoveries to uncover civilizations lost to the sea. The book examines the geological and environmental factors that caused these cities to sink, as well as the cultural impact and enduring myths they’ve inspired. Readers will discover how marine archaeology and insights from environmental science are used to study these underwater sites.

 
The book progresses geographically, starting with the Mediterranean, including the legendary Atlantis and the submerged city of Pavlopetri in Greece, one of the oldest underwater cities. It then moves to Asia, exploring cities like Dwarka in India, lost to rising sea levels and tsunamis.

 
By studying these sites, the book reveals valuable lessons for addressing contemporary issues like climate change and coastal management, demonstrating how past civilizations' struggles offer insights for our future.

    In his enthusiastic explorations and fervent writing, Michael J. Yochim "was to Yellowstone what Muir was to Yosemite. . . . Other times, his writing is like that of Edward Abbey, full of passion for the natural world and anger at those who are abusing it." In 2013 Yochim was diagnosed with ALS (Lou Gehrig's disease). While fighting the disease, he wrote Requiem for America's Best Idea. The book establishes a unique parallel between Yochim's personal struggle with a terminal illness and the impact climate change is having on the national parks—the treasured wilderness that he loved and to which he dedicated his life. 
     
     
     
    Yochim explains how climate change is already impacting the vegetation, wildlife, and the natural conditions in Olympic, Grand Canyon, Glacier, Yellowstone, and Yosemite National Parks. A poignant and thought-provoking work, Requiem for America's Best Idea investigates the interactions between people and nature and the world that can inspire and destroy them.
