Webb's essays offer a verbal counterpoint, focusing on the people who depend on and adjudicate the river's water. Based on interviews and extensive research, the narratives evoke the viewpoints of people whose connections to the river are as direct as that of the Federal Water Master or as tenuous as a Reno housewife trying to maintain a green lawn in the midst of a seven-year drought.

World Strategic Highways provides a detailed examination of approximately 50 of the most important strategic highways in the world. These highways may take the form of roads, railways, rivers and canals, or air and sea routes. They have one thing in common: they are of special significance because, throughout history, they have acted as major trade routes for a number of countries; have military or strategic significance; act to bind a country or countries together; or, in the case of rivers, act as boundaries between two or more countries. They include the Suez and Panama canals, the Rhine and Amazon rivers, the Trans-US Railway, the Khyber Pass and Maputo Corridor, the Silk Road, the Cape sea route and the Pacific sea route. Location maps are provided throughout the book.
