$53.91
by Thomas J. Schoenbaum (Author)
This updated edition of the 1979 original covers the landmark struggle to save the New River from damming in the 1970s. The grassroots movement emphasized the river's cultural and historical value rather than narrow environmental issues and became one of the great victories of the environmental movement. This edition also includes a new epilogue examining the current ecological status of the New River and the ongoing impact of the original conservation efforts in the face of new environmental threats.
The 1979 edition won the Weatherford Award presented by Berea College and the Appalachian Studies Association.
