N2  - "The Salton Sea, California's largest inland body of water, was a spectacular oasis in the desert which attracted droves of boating, fishing, and beach enthusiasts for fun in the sun. ...By the 1970s, unpredictable and poisonous agricultural runoff continually flooded the shorelines and caused many of the fish to die. After storms decimated several of the resorts and marinas, many residents were forced to abandon their homes and businesses. These once glorious seaside towns have been reduced to bleak, desolate wastelands, as the Salton Sea is now drying up... 'Abandoned California: The Salton Sea'... capture(s) the sublime beauty of the forsaken landscapes, buildings, and artifacts of this historic area's once vibrant past."--Back cover
