In a Dark Wood: The Fight Over Forests and the Myths of Nature
"A gripping story."—New York Times"A must-read for those who care about the environment."—Wall Street Journal"If you walk in the woods, read this book. It will open your eyes to what you're actually seeing."—Men's Journal"Fascinating reading, impeccably researched, and powerful."—Kirkus Reviews"The single most profound—and alarming—book in three decades of environmental literature."—Orange County Register"Anyone who wants to know why environmentalism has taken such an extreme turn in the past twenty-five years should read Alston Chase's account of the capture of the U.S. environmental movement. But the book has a much broader sweep. . . . In a Dark Wood should therefore appeal to the thoughtful liberals and conservatives alike."—Robert W. Crandall, The Brookings Institute
