A three-part series exploring the importance of water in power politics.
Good as Gold. In the American west, water has never been far from conflict, high politics, and big bucks. Now, in a reversal of history, Indians have won huge new water rights from their outraged white neighbours. As growing cities in the west fight to get water, the new breed of water-brokers are making a fortune buying and selling water rights. Written and narrated by Michael Elliott.
