Publisher Comments:

"We can place this book on the shelf that holds the writings of Thoreau and John Muir." San Francisco Chronicle

These astonishing portraits of the natural world explore the breathtaking diversity of the unspoiled American landscape — the mountains and the prairies, the deserts and the coastlines. A stunning tribute to our land and a bold challenge to protect the world we love.

Timeless commentary on the folly of conservationism with epic portraits of natural landscapes to boot. Published in 1949, more relevant than ever.
