A Passion for Nature: The Life of John Muir
ISBN: 9780199782246 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 544 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. "I am hopelessly and forever a mountaineer," John Muir wrote. "Civilization and fever and all the morbidness that has been hooted at me has not dimmed my glacial eye, and I care to live only to entice people to look at Nature's loveliness. My own special self is nothing." In Donald Worster's magisterial biography, John Muir's "special self" is fully explored as is his extraordinary ability, then and now, to get others to see the sacred beauty of the natural world. A Passion for Nature is the most complete account of the great conservationist and founder of the Sierra Club ever...

A River Running West: The Life of John Wesley Powell
ISBN: 9780195156355 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 688 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. If the word "hero" still belonged in the historian's lexicon, it would certainly be applied to John Wesley Powell. Intrepid explorer, careful scientist, talented writer, and dedicated conservationist, Powell led the expedition that put the Colorado River on American maps and revealed the Grand Canyon to the world. Now comes the first biography of this towering figure in almost fifty years--a book that captures his life in all its heroism, idealism, and ambivalent, ambiguous humanity.

Under Western Skies: Nature and History in the American West
ISBN: 9780195086713 / Angielski / Miękka / 1994 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. For decades, the story of the American West has been told as a glorious tale of conquest and rugged individualism--the triumph of progress. But recently, a new school of historians has challenged this view, creating what is known as the "new western history," an approach that gives a central role to the environment, native peoples, and the concentration of power in the hands of a few. Foremost among these historians is Donald Worster. In Worster's writings, the western past emerges not as a march of Manifest Destiny but rather as an unfolding relationship between humankind and nature.

The Ends of the Earth: Perspectives on Modern Environmental History
ISBN: 9780521343657 / Angielski / Twarda / 1989 / 352 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Since 1492, when Columbus "discovered" America, the world has been moving toward an increasingly integrated global economy, higher population levels and consequently greater resource demands, and an increasingly precarious state of the biosphere. These developments play a major part in both modern history and in daily life. Understanding their interrelationships and development is crucial to the future of humanity and of the Earth, and is the unifying theme of this collection of readings.

Shrinking the Earth: The Rise and Decline of Natural Abundance
ISBN: 9780190849856 / Angielski / Miękka / 2018 / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The discovery of the Americas around 1500 AD was an extraordinary watershed in human experience. It gave rise to the modern period of human ecology, a phenomenon global in scope that set in motion profound changes in almost every society on earth. This new period, which saw the depletion of the lands of the New World, proved tragic for some, triumphant for others, and powerfully affecting for all. In this work, acclaimed environmental historian Donald Worster takes a global view in his examination of the ways in which complex issues of worldwide abundance and scarcity have shaped American...

Nature's Economy: A History of Ecological Ideas
ISBN: 9780521468343 / Angielski / Miękka / 1994 / 526 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Nature's Economy is a wide-ranging investigation of ecology's past. It traces the origins of the concept, discusses the thinkers who have shaped it, and shows how it in turn has shaped the modern perception of our place in nature. The book includes portraits of Linnaeus, Gilbert White, Darwin, Thoreau, and such key twentieth-century ecologists as Rachel Carson, Frederic Clements, Aldo Leopold, James Lovelock, and Eugene Odum. It concludes with a new Part VI, which looks at the directions ecology has taken most recently.

An Unsettled Country: Changing Landscapes of the American West
ISBN: 9780826314826 / Angielski / Miękka / 1994 / 163 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The West remains unsettled--by cultural habits, intellectual debate, and ecological conditions. In these four essays, which were presented as the 1992 Calvin P. Horn Lectures in Western History and Culture, Donald Worster incisively discusses the role of the natural environment in the making of the West--and often in its unmaking and remaking. His subjects are four linked topics: the legacy of John Wesley Powell to western resource management; the domination of water policy by state, science, and capital since the mid-nineteenth century; the fate of wildlife in the push to settle the West;...

Dust Bowl: The Southern Plains in the 1930s
ISBN: 9780195174885 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 290 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In the mid 1930s, North America's Great Plains faced one of the worst man-made environmental disasters in world history. Donald Worster's classic chronicle of the devastating years between 1929 and 1939 tells the story of the Dust Bowl in ecological as well as human terms. Now, twenty-five years after his book helped to define the new field of environmental history, Worster shares his more recent thoughts on the subject of the land and how humans interact with it. In a new afterword, he links the Dust Bowl to current political, economic and ecological issues--including the American...

Rivers of Empire: Water, Aridity, and the Growth of the American West
ISBN: 9780195078060 / Angielski / Miękka / 1992 / 416 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. When Henry David Thoreau went for his daily walk, he would consult his instincts on which direction to follow. More often than not his inner compass pointed west or southwest. "The future lies that way to me," he explained, "and the earth seems more unexhausted and richer on that side." In his own imaginative way, Thoreau was imitating the countless young pioneers, prospectors, and entrepreneurs who were zealously following Horace Greeley's famous advice to "go west." Yet while the epic chapter in American history opened by these adventurous men and women is filled with stories of frontier...
