Abstract

David Kromm and Stephen White, both professors of geography at Kansas State University and experts on water use in the West, have gathered pieces by water experts. The result, Groundwater Exploitation in the High Plains, is a first-rate exploration of the methods and problems of groundwater utilization in the Ogallala Aquifer and the states overlying it-Kansas, Nebraska, Colorado, Oklahoma, Texas, and New Mexico.
