Fine unread condition glossy photographic softcover wraps. Includes Acknowledgments; Foreword by Dan Dagget, February 1995; Preliminary Page Quote by Wendell Perry; Introduction; Epilogue: Notes on the Photographs; Afterword and About the Author and Photographer. Profusely illustrated with color photographs. Signed and inscribed by the author, Dan Dagget, with blue pen on the first free front endpaper. "In Beyond the Rangeland Conflict, Dan Dagget reveals a powerful process for bringing solutions to issues that reach well beyond grasslands and cows. The exceptional individuals he profiles here beckon us to follow their example; to set aside our differences and work toward a common vision of a green and growing land, of clear streams, and of an Earth alive with natural and cultural diversity. If you believe that cooperation is more powerful than confrontation, this is a book you must read." - from the rear outer cover. "One of the most wasteful tragedies of the West has been the conflict between ranchers and conservationists. Dan Dagget's book, Beyond the Rangeland Conflict, states the terms of an authentic reconciliation: renew the sense of community, of common good and common ground; work together to define common goals and to achieve them. The ranchers and conservationists who populate these pages have quit fighting over the contested landscapes and have begun restoring them. It would be hard to overestimate the importance of their stories. I read this book eagerly, recognizing it as something I have been waiting for, and it gave me hope. Several friends of mine need to read it. I'll take a dozen copies." - Wendell Berry, author of A Continuous Harmony, The Unsettling of America, and Nathan Coulter. "Dan Dagget and Jay Dusard have done us all a grand favor by exploding the false dichotomies of 'user' versus 'conservator' and 'rancher' versus 'environmentalist.' Instead, they beckon us to look hard at the land with newly opened eyes, to flare our nostrils and smell the prevailing fragrances: wildlife, wildflowers, or only cowpies. They gracefully move us away from what had been our own self-defeating prejudices. Beyond the Rangeland Conflict is an essential loom we'll need if we are to reweave human communities back into the larger fabric of life in the Intermountain West." - Gary Paul Nabhan, PhD., science advisor, Arizona-Senora Desert Museum, author of Gathering the Desert and Enduring Seeds. "By focusing on the land itself and not on organizational agendas, Dan Dagget has chronicled a positive and very necessary synthesis between ranchers and environmentalists in Beyond the Ranngeland Conflict. Since I know one of the ranchers in this book well, I can say with assurance that Dan is accurate and fair, but most importantly he has taken a step toward healing the fractured community and the land upon which we all depend." - Peter Coyote, actor, conservationist.…

Store description
Vero Beach Books is an antiquarian bookseller with a constantly updated inventory of rare out-of-print books, signed books, children's books, plus a large inventory of ephemeral items such as major U.S. city newspapers going back 100 years and more, golden and silver age fine condition comic books (soon to be added), and many other ephemeral items as well as much more recent popular volumes. We have been in business for 25 years, originally known as Emerson Books (named after one of our owner's favorite authors, to wit, Ralph Waldo Emerson) located back then in Westport, Connecticut. That said, we are here to serve you, to offer you fine quality items that are conservatively described so that you will always be pleasantly surprised and delighted with your purchase. Twenty-five years in the bookselling business has borne out our stellar service oriented reputation; the only difference is that now we are located in the almost always sunny and warm climate of Vero Beach, Florida. Again, we are here to serve you and, as was the case when we were previously known on ABEBooks.com as Emerson Books, we will continue to offer our very popular 100% free search service for those hard to find books rare and out of print books. Oftentimes we are also able to obtain these rare finds at very good discounts to our customers' so it is always worth contacting us in such cases!
