| Abstract | This uncompromising biography explores every facet of Brower's time as leader of the Sierra Club and steward of the modern environmental movement. His passionate advocacy destroyed lifelong friendships and at times threatened his goals. Yet his achievements remain some of the most important triumphs of the conservation movement. What emerges from this unique portrait is a rich and robust profile of a leader who made environmentalism the cause of our time. |
