The American landscape: from wilderness to wasteland – in pictures

The ravaged landscape of America in the 1980s is the focus of a new book by photographer David T Hanson. Comprising four powerful sets of unseen photographs that show the impact of industrialization and the military, the images range from nuclear sites to mines and bear testimony to the legacy of their toxic and hazardous remains. Wilderness to Wasteland is published by Taverner Press on 26 April
