Maybe because of its long and enduring struggle with deindustrialization, depopulation, and an assortment of other urban ills, added to its rich history of urban parks, community gardens, and public arts and murals, Philadelphia has been a unique laboratory for testing out the potential that a city has to beautify its rough urban patches. Economist Susan Wachter, a professor of real estate, finance, and city planning at the University of Pennsylvania's Wharton School of Business, conducted a study offering further proof that such green investments were a win-win for neighborhoods.

[...] his salvific faith in cotton farming comes at a cost: monocultures such as cotton deplete the soils they are planted in; become more susceptible to pests and erosion and thus require greater inputs of pesticides, herbicides, and labor; and encourage industrialized cultivation techniques that rely on questionable technologies and further trap farmers in cotton production. [...] they offer a means to envision more richly, and empathize with, farmworkers of color, at home and abroad, who - contrary to transnational agribusiness sloganeering - feed and clothe the world, whose "foreign" labor makes "domestic" habitation possible.

More affecting, perhaps, is that millions of other humans had long coexisted with the grizzly. Native American stories, he notes, "do not whitewash bears"; the animals contain all the power and force that Anglo-American tales convey. "The bears are both good and evil, are valued and respected in either case on an individual basis," but with this difference: "[T]heir inherent right to exist is never an issue." That may be because Indian peoples identified bears "as essentially humans in another form, thus conferred individuality to bears and thus a corpus of rights to bears." Were contemporary Americans to embrace this meld of animal and human, the grizzly might well be revived and, in the process, force a rethinking of the "history of the natural West.
So the grizzly bear reminds us. I...

There are no longer muddy ruts, treacherous river crossings, waterless stretches of prairie, threats of attack from Plains Indian warriors, cholera, or runaway mule teams, but following the Santa Fe Trail is still an exciting trip.
Plan to spend the better part of a week if you want to visit state and national historic sites, walk along the wagon ruts and meet the local residents.
