Our wilderness

"Our Wilderness" is the best introduction to the wilderness idea I've ever seen in 50 years of reading about wilderness. The author explains the many ways people appreciate wilderness, and the many benefits wilderness yields to American society.

After reading Doug's first book, The Enduring Wilderness, our local chapters of the Montana Wilderness Association understood the history and importance of the Wilderness Movement. Now with Our Wilderness, America's Common Ground, we feel even more why we love the land that surrounds us and why it is of utmost importance to preserve these incredible areas.

"Our Wilderness: America's Common Ground" inspires the lover of nature in us all. The compelling text and outstanding photos kept the book in my hands even as my heart wanted to bolt right out the doors and into the nearest wild land I could find.
