An Everglades Providence: Marjory Stoneman Douglas and the American Environmental Century (Environmental History and the American South)
"A compelling biography of one of the twentieth century's giants in American conservation and letters. Davis does for Marjory Stoneman Douglas what Linda Lear did for Rachel Carson and Farley Mowat did for Dian Fossey. He gives us the textures of a principled woman, sometimes troubled, sometimes ambitious, always dedicated to an unselfish goal. Davis does justice to both Douglas's life and the incipient days of America's environmental awakening."--Ted Levin, author ofLiquid Land: A Journey through the Florida Everglades
