Dam removal was not a realistic option in the twentieth century, and people who suggested it were dismissed as radical dreamers, but in recent decades it has become increasingly common, with dozens of removals now taking place each year nationwide. How did this happen? Same River Twice answers this question by telling the stories of three major Pacific Northwest dam removals - the politics, people, hopes, and fears that shaped three rivers and their communities.
