Review
"He sandwiches history between accounts of recent public-land controversies--a proposed renaming for Dinosaur National Monument, an owl-killing program to protect peregrine falcons--and follows them with a nine-day solo backpack trip he made through the range. . . . It tries to explain the problems and turns of mind of the Uintas' human neighbors without taking a stand on specific issues. Its quiet sympathy is refreshing amid the general tumult and shouting." --San Francisco Chronicle"Fradkin is not a wild-eyed environmentalist, nor is he anti-development. His is a reasoned approach in a forum that allows very little reason to intrude on emotional issues." --Denver Post"In the land of many uses and abuses, his work delivers understanding over blame. That's virgin territory for the West." --Bloomsbury Review
