needs a rewrite

This is an informative entry, but it contains careless misspellings and some infelicities of style that a writing instructor would flag. Somebody needs to attend to these. I'm just passing through.130.74.201.72 (talk) 13:59, 6 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Needs rebuild/refocus

Standard primitivist treatment needs better nuance (no tobacco mentioned, cotton section nonsensically postdates Civil War and omits slavery & effect of cotton cultivation on soil, if WWI somehow worse than railroad era explain how, etc) and more realism about Native American/Indian involvement. a) This patently wasn't the default ecosystem if required careful fire management: it was a created thing; b) the forested bits of it expanded hugely following smallpox depopulation, rather than being somehow damaged by fewer fires; c) most importantly, it was well on its way to being replaced or restructured prior to English dominion b/c of NA/I love for the hogs & peach trees introduced by the Spanish, both of which quickly spread like wildfire.

There's also the discrepency btwn initial 75% and later 97% reduction claims & omission of discussion of rots & pests such as those that nixed the American chestnut. — LlywelynII 12:05, 26 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
