5.0 out of 5 stars Very in depth and articulate account of conservation and politics., October 19, 2011
By 
Edward M Furey (Arnold, MO United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Battle for the Buffalo River: A Twentieth-Century Conservation Crisis in the Ozarks (Paperback)
There is so much that we don't know about the workings of government as it relates to conservation and the politics of "progress". This book is a true education about the money and power that the government can and has used not to the benefit of many but to the few at the expense of all. If you have ever been to this area of the country and appreciate the true treasure that is the Ozarks, you owe it to yourself to read this account of how fortunate we are to have people that will fight for the preservation of our priceless wilderness. Well done!

4.0 out of 5 stars Methodical and penetrating writing., July 23, 1998
By A Customer
Well researched I guess. There is no bibliography or works cited. Actually written as if the writer doesn't want to make enemies. The Buffalo National River made enough of those during its emergence I suppose. Still the book is written with the deep-seated feelings that only those who truly aprreciate the steadily changing equilibrium of natural spaces can envoke.
