From the rear cover

In Nature's Best Hope, Douglas W. Tallamy urges homeowners to take environmental action into their own hands, one yard at a time. This homegrown approach sidesteps the shortsightedness of governmental policy and the physical limitations of our isolated national parks, empowering us all to make our planet a better place.
