Description
Summary:	Details two centuries of work that has literally reshaped the North American continent in the name of progress and expansion.

Ironically, the Corps' trademark blend of military perseverance and technical skill will undoubtedly provide the experience necessary to restore that which it has worked so hard to control--the natural environment.
