Encounters with the Archdruid

At the end of his split from leading the Sierra Club, three essays and adventures spent with him and a likely nemesis in the terrain: an advocate of mining Cascades Wilderness, of developing Cumberland Island, and of damming the Colorado and Grand Canyon. Fascinating for being an earlier era of conservation but still entirely recognizable arguments for access for people's needs vs saving the earth and humanity's dependence on a functioning ecosystem. Masterful journalistic project to record these titans on the land they are debating.
