"Reading this poignant volume again emphasizes to me how crucial it is to keep exploitation out of this extraordinary part of our planet, so that it can serve as a lasting beacon for America's wilderness."--Edgar Wayburn, M.D., five-time president of the Sierra Club and author of "Your Land and Mine" PRAISE FOR THE SECOND EDITION: "A book for every man and woman who loves the wilderness.
