Book excerpt: "By 1980, the Columbia Gorge's world-class vistas were on the brink of destruction. Every generation since 1907 had tried to protect the Gorge from development but had failed. A Force for Nature describes how Nancy Russell, a mother of four with no political, fundraising, or organizing experience, built a successful grassroots campaign to save the Gorge despite furious opposition, slashed tires, and threats to her life. Bowen Blair, former executive director of Friends of the Columbia Gorge and senior vice president of the Trust for Public Land, provides a behind-the-scenes account of how Russell thwarted factories and subdivisions proposed for the Gorge's most spectacular lands while overcoming intense resistance to federal legislation from both Oregon and Washington Governors, five of the six Gorge counties, 41,000 Gorge residents, and the Reagan administration. Blair provides previously unknown details on Russell's use of litigation, land acquisition, and legislation to achieve last-second, dramatic victories. He describes how Russell drove the purchase of the Gorge's most important land for public parks, and provided loans and bought property herself when the Trust for Public Land's strategy faltered. Blair recounts the National Scenic Area Act's fraught Congressional passage on the session's last day, and why President Reagan reversed his decision to veto the Act just hours before it would die. A Force for Nature should be read by anyone who cares about the Gorge or protecting nationally significant landscapes, or who will enjoy a suspenseful account of a woman overcoming daunting odds to save the place that she loved"--

Book Synopsis Bridging a Great Divide by : Kathie Durbin
Download or read book Bridging a Great Divide written by Kathie Durbin and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1986, President Ronald Reagan signed the Columbia River Gorge National Scenic Area Act, setting into motion one of the great land-use experiments of modern times. The act struck a compromise between protection for one of the West's most stunning landscapes--the majestic Gorge carved by Ice Age floods, which today divides Washington and Oregon--and encouragement of compatible economic development in communities on both sides of the river. In Bridging a Great Divide, award-winning environmental journalist Kathie Durbin draws on interviews, correspondence, and extensive research to tell the story of the major shifts in the Gorge since the Act's passage. Sweeping change has altered the Gorge's landscape: upscale tourism and outdoor recreation, gentrification, the end of logging in national forests, the closing of aluminum plants, wind farms, and a population explosion in the metropolitan area to its west. Yet, to the casual observer, the Gorge looks much the same as it did twenty-five years ago. How can we measure the success of the Columbia River Gorge National Scenic Area Act? In this insightful and revealing history, Durbin suggests that the answer depends on who you are: a small business owner, an environmental watchdog group, a chamber of commerce. The story of the Columbia River Gorge National Scenic Area is the story of the Pacific Northwest in microcosm, as the region shifts from a natural-resource-based economy to one based on recreation, technology, and quality of life.
