"Saving the Nisqually Delta is an inspiring drama that captures the voices of environmentalists who fought proposals to industrialize the Nisqually Delta in Washington State. The Nisqually Delta is one of the country's last unspoiled estuaries, a place where the fresh water of the Nisqually River meets the salt water of Puget Sound."
