Their collaboration, within the contexts of community organizing and a natural disaster, leads to meaningful transformation for each of them. How they come to trust and depend upon each other provides a wellspring for wider, and riskier, actions. Their exchanges, in the contexts of community organizing and a natural disaster, lead to meaningful transformation for each of them. A tribute to the power and mystery of water. The largeness of spirit, thought, and heart is so clear in Water Spies. --Shirley Glubka, author of Return to a Meadow
