Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. The little-known story of how the U.S. government came to hold nearly one-third of the nations land primarily for recreation and conservation The U.S. government holds nearly one-third of the nations landmore than 600 million acres of forests, plains, mountains, wetlands, deserts, and shorelines found in every part of the country. In this book, John Leshy, a leading expert in public lands policy, discusses the key political decisions that led to this result, beginning at the very founding of the nation. He traces the emergence of a bipartisan political consensus in favor of the national government managing vast areas of land primarily for recreation, education, science, and conservation of biodiversity and cultural resources.
