Steward's Fork

"Steward's Fork explores northwest California's magnificent Klamath Mountains - a region that boasts remarkable biodiversity, a terrain so rugged that significant landscape features are still being discovered, and a wealth of natural resources that have been used, and more recently abused, by humans for millennia. James K. Agee, a forest ecologist with more than fifty years' experience in the Klamaths, asks how we can most effectively steward this spectacular landscape for a sustainable future. In narrative enlivened by personal anecdotes, he describes the dynamics of the Klamaths' ecosystems, with their complex geology and diverse flora and fauna, the history of the indigenous peoples, and the lasting effects of logging, mining, ranching, and damming."--BOOK JACKET.
