Heart of the Land--#67 finished

The rest of the title is: Essays on Last Great Places.  This is a book of short essays put together for the Nature Conservancy done in the early to mid 1990s.   Talks about areas that are important to the author and also where the Nature Conservancy is involved and how it will hopefully or has gotten the land back to what it was.  Kind of interesting to hear about the places & what they were like and then the changes & hopefully getting back to what they were.  A few cases there weren't changes but still needed protection to keep they from being changed.  The timing of this book struck me part of the way through because there was no mention of global warming or climate change--if this had been compiled a few years later I am sure that would have been a main theme.

There are no WL for it on PBS, it is a hardback with it's cover but does have a minor stain on the cover & through to the book cover too.  I think probably still postable at PBS but to avoid any question of problems will probably just go in my donate away pile.
