"Farming and the Fate of Wild Nature addresses an urgent and complex issue facing communities throughout the world: the need for heightened land stewardship and conservation in an era of diminishing natural resources. This book takes up where its predecessor, the award-winning Farming with the Wild left off. Featuring a wide-range of in-depth essays, articles, and other materials by authors such as Wendell Berry, Michael Pollan, Barbara Kingsolver, Ted Williams, and Rick Bass, this book persuasively demonstrates that farm and ranch operations that coexist with wild nature are necessary to sustain biodiversity and beauty on the landscape."--Publisher's website.
