A chronicle of the history and evolution of the conservation movement across eighteen islands in the Salish Sea. Sheila Harrington gathers over fifty interviews with veteran conservationists to present an in-depth view of conservation land trusts, from their emergence forty years ago through multiple legal battles, organizational challenges, hard lessons, case studies, and human-interest stories. Full of colour photos, maps, and fascinating first-hand stories by conservationists, Harrington reveals how grassroots movements have the power to transform the future of a natural environment.
