Washington's White Salmon River was saddled with a fish-obstructing, inefficient dam, and the Timbisha Shoshone Homeland was unacknowledged within the boundaries of Death Valley National Park. Until people decided to reclaim them. In Reclaimers, Ana Maria Spagna drives an aging Buick up and down the long strip of West Coast mountain ranges--the Panamints, the Sierras, the Cascades--and alongside rivers to meet the people, many of them wise women, who persevered for decades with little hope of success to make changes happen. In uncovering their heroic stories, Spagna seeks a way for herself, and for all of us, to take back and to make right in a time of unsettling ecological change. Ana Maria Spagna is the author of several books, most recently Potluck : Community on the Edge of Wilderness"--Publishers website.Women environmentalistsfast(OCoLC)fst01177643Travelfast(OCoLC)fst01155558RiversEnvironmental aspectsfast(OCoLC)fst01098320Reclamation of landfast(OCoLC)fst01091410MountainsEnvironmental aspectsfast(OCoLC)fst01028370Indians of North AmericaLand tenurefast(OCoLC)fst00969807Environmental protectionfast(OCoLC)fst00913324Ecologyfast(OCoLC)fst00901476NATUREEnvironmental Conservation & ProtectionbisacshBUSINESS & ECONOMICSReal EstateGeneralbisacshRiversEnvironmental aspectsNorthwest, PacificMountainsEnvironmental aspectsNorthwest, PacificIndians of North AmericaLand tenureNorthwest, PacificWomen environmentalistsNorthwest, PacificBiographyReclamation of landNorthwest, PacificEnvironmental protectionNorthwest, PacificPacific NorthwestfastNorthwest, PacificDescription and travelNorthwest, PacificBiographyNorthwest, PacificEnvironmental conditionsBiographies.Women environmentalists.Travel.RiversEnvironmental aspects.Reclamation of land.MountainsEnvironmental aspects.Indians of North AmericaLand tenure.Environmental protection.Ecology.NATUREEnvironmental Conservation & Protection.BUSINESS & ECONOMICSReal EstateGeneral.RiversEnvironmental aspectsMountainsEnvironmental aspectsIndians of North AmericaLand tenureWomen environmentalistsReclamation of landEnvironmental protection333.71/5309795Spagna Ana Maria1144599MdBmJHUPMdBmJHUPBOOK9910797547303321Reclaimers3835827UNINA
