Synopses & Reviews
This beautifully written biography tells the life story of the foremost American conservationist in this century. Born in 1887 and educated at Yale, Aldo Leopold worked throughout his life ¿ whether for the Forest Service or as a naturalist, educator, and writer ¿ to articulate an American land ethic: "How can we live on the land without spoiling it?" In this heavily illustrated biography, Marybeth Lorbiecki movingly reveals the background, early inspirations, struggles, and triumphs of the author of the environmental classics, A Sand County Almanac and Round River.
