The story of drought is common and old. Civilizations have come and gone in its wake. This is a story of survival, a story of rain. In many arid regions of the world, survival has long demanded an intricate relationship with and understanding of the rain. As the source of fresh water on Earth, rain is a crucial part of the natural cycle which sustains life. For millennia, across diverse cultures of the world, people employed rainwater harvesting methods as a means of providing for this most precious need.As societies turn ever-increasingly to modern, highly engineered water projects characterized by large, bureaucratic governments, we have forgotten the rain. It has receded from our daily concern. In turn, we have overexploited other freshwater sources, threatening our rivers and aquifers and the ecosystems they support.Fortunately, the human memory is resilient, and we have not forgotten the ancient understanding of rain. In countries as diverse as the United States and India, traditional water harvesting methods that sustained cultures in their most arid landscapes have re-emerged to play a vital role in community water management.

With the world at war, a law degree in hand and recently married, Talbot Rain knew his destiny. Along with his brother and his friends they joined the United States Marine Corps. He begins his journey with boot camp where he learns what being a Marine is really all about. He then heads to Officer Candidate School where he trains to become an officer. With his training finished, Talbot is sent to the Pacific to see what lies ahead for a first lieutenant as the battle rages on with Japan. Talbot explains first-hand how it felt to be a Marine landing on Iwo Jima. Strength, courage and humility are all told as Talbot fights alongside other Marines to an Allied victory at Iwo Jima. As tides turn, Talbot finds himself as a General's aide during the Occupation of Japan. And now, more than half a century later, Talbot finds the memories flow again of long ago battles, friendships and victories.

This book examines the deep connection Australians have with their climate to understand contemporary views on human-induced climate change. It is the first study of the Australian relationship with La Niña and it explains how fundamental this relationship is to the climate change debate both locally and globally. While unease with the Australian environment was a hallmark of early settler relations with a new continent, this book argues that the climate itself quickly became a source of hope and linked to progress. Once observed, weather patterns coalesced into recognizable cycles of wet and dry years and Australians adopted a belief in the certainty of good seasons. It was this optimistic response to climate linked to La Niña that laid the groundwork for this relationship with the Australian environment. This book will appeal to scholars and students of the environmental humanities, history and science as well as anyone concerned about climate change.
