Description
"This book is a deeply researched and engaging clarion call for the protection and restoration of the Bear River Marsh, a wetland of national and international importance for migratory waterfowl and shorebirds. Grounded in natural history and administrative sources, and stretching from prehistory through the creation and development of the Bear River National Wildlife Refuge, Andrew Hedges's account highlights the unforeseen disruptions to the marsh ecosystem during nearly a century of well-meaning but often misguided attempts to manage and control its hydrology and biology." - Philip Garone, author of The Fall and Rise of the Wetlands of California's Great Central Valley
