Summary: "Uncommon Conservation, The Story of Saving Grass River chronicles the origins of one of Michigan's oldest and largest nature preserves. In an era that predated heightened environmental consciousness, a handful of visionaries -- that soon grew to hundreds -- have achieved national recognition as the 'Grass River Model.' These volunteer activists protected an irreplaceable resource for the good of nature and community. This collective accomplishment is a roadmap for future environmental stewards committed to enriching lives and ensuring the permanence of the natural world." -- back cover
