Book Synopsis A Season on the Allegheny by : Robert T Hilliard
Download or read book A Season on the Allegheny written by Robert T Hilliard and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2012-05-08 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A Season on the Allegheny" is a rollicking account of a year spent hunting on the Allegheny National Forest. Author Robert Hilliard tracks down more than deer, turkey, and grouse - he captures the Forest's magnificent past and finds the people who are still making history on the Allegheny today. He also pursues the many controversies that swirl around Pennsylvania's only National Forest, including anti-logging protests, Wilderness designations, and ecoterrorism. "A Season on the Allegheny" also uncovers the quiet but powerful impact of hunter-based conservation groups on National Forests. It documents the many ways - from habitat improvements to legal aid - in which groups such as the Ruffed Grouse Society, National Wild Turkey Federation, and Pheasants Forever have spent countless hours and dollars making the Allegheny National Forest a better place.

Book Synopsis Forests for the People by : Christopher Johnson
Download or read book Forests for the People written by Christopher Johnson and published by Island Press. This book was released on 2013-01-25 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Forests for the People tells one of the most extraordinary stories of environmental protection in our nation’s history: how a diverse coalition of citizens, organizations, and business and political leaders worked to create a system of national forests in the Eastern United States. It offers an insightful and wide-ranging look at the actions leading to the passage of the Weeks Act in 1911—landmark legislation that established a system of well-managed forests in the East, the South, and the Great Lakes region—along with case studies that consider some of the key challenges facing eastern forests today. The book begins by looking at destructive practices widely used by the timber industry in the late 1800s and early 1900s, including extensive clearcutting followed by forest fire that devastated entire landscapes. The authors explain how this led to the birth of a new conservation movement that began simultaneously in the Southern Appalachians and New England, and describe the subsequent protection of forests in New England (New Hampshire and the White Mountains); the Great Lakes region (Michigan, Wisconsin, and Minnesota), and the Southern Appalachians. Following this historical background, the authors offer eight case studies that examine critical issues facing the eastern national forests today, including timber harvesting, the use of fire, wilderness protection, endangered wildlife, oil shale drilling, invasive species, and development surrounding national park borders. Forests for the People is the only book to fully describe the history of the Weeks Act and the creation of the eastern national forests and to use case studies to illustrate current management issues facing these treasured landscapes. It is an important new work for anyone interested in the past or future of forests and forestry in the United States.
