"A Sea in Flames is [Safina's] blistering account of the months-long, man-made disaster that tormented a region and mesmerized the nation. During the summer of 2010, Safina traveled across the Gulf of Mexico to make sense of an ever-changing story and its often nonsensical twists. The result is Safina's expert deconstruction of the series of calamitous misjudgments that caused the Deepwater Horizon blowout. Impassioned, moving, and even sharply funny, A Sea in Flames is ultimately an indictment of America's main addiction. Safina writes: 'In the end, this is a chronicle of a summer of pain -- and hope. Hope that the full potential of this catastrophe would not materialize, hope that the harm done would heal faster than feared, and hope that even if we didn't suffer the absolute worst, we'd still learn the big lesson here. We may have gotten two out of three. That's not good enough. Because: there'll be a next time.'"--Book cover, p. [4]
