Résumé:

'Riverton' examines urban river restoration efforts across the United States, presenting case studies from Los Angeles, Washington D.C., Chicago, Salt Lake City and San José. It also analyses the roles of the federal government (particularly the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers) and citizen activism in urban river politics.
