Exhibition Label: "Claimed: Land Use in Western America," Jun-2007, Kate Meyer “At least in this corner of the southwestern desert, nature is supposed to be under our firm control, working hard to make us all rich; and we can go on our way confident that responsible, competent people are in charge, assured that nature is no longer much of a threat to our welfare and that we are the very lords of life.” Donald Worster, Under Western Skies: Nature and History in the American West, 1992
