The Fight to Save the Redwoods - A History of Environmental Reform, 1917-1978 (Paperback, First)


"This is not a simple or ordinary history of a conservation crusade. Schrepfer very ably traces the changes in scientific wisdom from nineteenth-century romanticism and teleological evolutionism to more current ecological dynamism--and the influence of those intellectual developments on political history. . . . The subject is important--much broader than the title suggests--and so is the book."--"American Historical Review"
