Though ethanol, a liquid fuel made from agricultural byproducts, has generated controversy in recent years--good or bad for the environment? a big-ag boon or boondoggle?--its use goes back more than a century. Tracing the little-known history of this promising and contentious fuel, Ethanol: A Hemispheric History for the Future of Biofuels reveals the transnational nature of ethanol's development by its two biggest producers, the U.S. and Brazil.
