From the rear cover
David Morine was a briefcase conservationist specializing in human nature. During his eighteen years in charge of land acquisition for The Nature Conservancy, he directed the successful completion of more than 5,000 land conservation projects that resulted in the protection of more than three million acres of America's finest remaining forests, wetlands, deserts, islands, and rivers. Along the way he found plenty to learn and laugh about--people, nature, and, most of all, himself. Morine left the Conservancy in 1990 when he felt that it and other major conservation groups had become more focused on building big organizations than on saving land. Since that time he has kept a hand in conservation by sharing the lessons he learned at the Conservancy with local land trusts, especially those trying to protect our rivers and streams. With his usual humor, Morine shares many of these lessons in this new edition and gives conservationists, and anyone looking for an entertaining read, an enlightening inside look at the business of conservation.
