description: In this anthology thirty western environ-mental writers speak of their personal and often passionate feelings for the land, from the tundra in Alaska to the White Sands Proving Ground in New Mexico. Original contributions by well-known essayists such as Michael P. Branch, Louise Freeman-Toole, Sharman Apt Russell, Kathleen Dean Moore, and Robert Michael Pyle evidence that the very personal relationships to the physical land remain unchanged at a time of increasing pressure on public spaces throughout the West. Royalties from this book will go to the Lands Council of Spokane, Washington, and the Friends of the Clearwater of Moscow, Idaho.
