Join author Craig Pittman at the History Center Book Club for a lively conversation about Manatee Insanity: Inside the War Over Florida's Most Famous Endangered Species.
 
For the past two decades, the quiet manatee has been a flash point of frequent debates between environmentalists, biologists, developers, boaters, citizens, lawyers, and politicians. Pittman's in-depth history of the controversy surrounding the manatee exposes the uneasy relationships between science and the law and between freedom and responsibility.
