A Force for Nature: Nancy Russell's Fight to Save the Columbia Gorge

Meer over het boek

A Force for Nature is a biography of a person and a place. It describes how Nancy Russell, a woman with no political, fundraising, or organizing experience, mounted a national campaign to overcome eighty years of conflict--some of it later directed at her through slashed tires and death threats--to protect the Columbia River Gorge, one of the nation's most scenic, historic, and threatened landscapes.
