Revolution On The Range

In "Revolution on the Range," Courtney White challenges the conventional wisdom that those who wanted to work the land and those who wanted to protect it had fundamentally different--and irreconcilable--values. He argues that ranchers and environmentalists have more in common than they've typically admitted: a love of wildlife, a deep respect for nature, and a strong allergic reaction to suburbanization. The real conflict has not been over ethics, but approaches. As ranchers and environmentalists find common cause, they're discovering new ways to live on--and preserve--the land they both love. "Revolution on the Range "is the story of that journey, and a heartening vision of the new American West.
