“The Death and Life of the Great Lakes” by Dan Eagan. 364 pages. Published in 2017. According to recent metrics of the US EPA, the Great Lakes hold about 84% of North America’s fresh surface water and 21% of the world’s supply of fresh water. The book touches on the extraordinary aspects of the freshwater sea, history of human use and misuse of these waters,  many environmental threats impacting them, and efforts to protect their ecology.  Egan is a former reporter covering the Great Lakes at the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel and now is journalist in residence at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee's School of Freshwater Sciences.
