Praise for the first edition: "On the Home Front should be read by everyone who cares about public policy and the environmental issues that dominate this post-modern world."--Western Historical Quarterly. "[Gerber's] skill in reconstructing the story of Hanford's environmental ravages has given us a book that can both alarm and instruct."--Journal of American History. "[Declassified documents] reveal a five-decade pattern of environmental insult that is breathtaking in its scope and pervasiveness... The story [Gerber] tells grips us: the sticky web of strategic choices involving Hanford and its purposes has ensnared every inhabitant ... of the Pacific Northwest for more than half a century."--Oregon Historical Quarterly
