Appearance
In 2010, Reclamation issued a 30-year update to their previous Law of the River compendium, "Updating the Hoover Dam Documents" (Nathanson, 1978). The first 13 chapters are commentary, and then there is an extensive set of appendixes. The Front Matter contains a table of contents and list of the appendixes.
