That Wild Country: An Epic Journey through the Past, Present, and Future of America’s Public Lands

We know that public lands in the United States are under threat, but author Mark Kenyon shows us that they have been since the beginning of the republic. In his debut book, Kenyon lays out the contentious history of U.S lands and profiles some of the modern-day scuffles led by groups ranging from extractive energy corporations to mobs of gun-toting insurrectionists. That Wild Country will leave you better informed, more in love with public lands, and poised to step up and protect them.
