Guest moderator William Stolzenburg will post ideas and observations about Aldo Leopold's "Thinking Like a Mountain" essay from the book, A Sand County Almanac (Oxford U. Press, 1949). We will also read Curt Meine's "The Once and Future Land Ethic" from his book Correction Lines: Essays of Land, Leopold, and Conservation (Island Press, 2004) and discuss how these two essays intersect as we scope out the future of wildlife refuges and American conservation (all essays and image above reproduced by permission of the publishers). Comments are welcome prior to our discussion or email us at library@fws.gov.
Whether you are a nature enthusiast, book lover, young conservationist, student, teacher, or Refuge friend, you are invited to participate in America's WildRead community discussion. This blog is provided to you by the Friends of the National Conservation Training Center (NCTC) in partnership with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Conservation Library. All are welcome!
