Abstract:

One of the greatest and most influential conservation books ever published in the United States was published in 1949. The author was Aldo Leopold, and the book was A Sand County Almanac. Only Carson's Silent Spring and Thoreau's Walden are serious competitors. Wildlife biologists Pete Bromley and Phil Doerr discuss what Leopold's work says to citizens of North Carolina at the start of the twenty-first century.
