The World Without Us

By Alan Weisman

       This book was totally different than I expected. I was expecting  a fictional story about how the animals react to humans suddenly disappearing and what they do with all of our man made structures. It is a lot more about how long it would take for the entire human civilization to collapse including buildings. It talks about a timeline and breaks down how  a New York type city would collapse and eventually go back to how it was before we were here. The only difference it that there would be new plants that we brought from all over the world. I would recommend this book to anybody who likes to learn about nature and likes a good non fiction book.
