Description

Revisiting Aldo Leopold’s Land Ethic: Emerging Cultures of Sustainability is a collection of essays about the man acknowleged by some as the father of wildlife conservation. What may be a surprise to some is that Leopold was one of the early leaders of the American wilderness movement.

Throughout his life he played many roles: wildlife manager, hunter, husband, father, naturalist, wilderness advocate, poet, scientist, philosopher, and visionary.

He is best known as author of A Sand County Almanac, and Sketches Here and There.

Beyond his descriptions of the natural world, in this writing Leopold articulated an innovative idea known as the “land ethic,” a new way of thinking and acting toward the land.
