Few have taken Leopold's vision more to heart than Steven I.

In healing his land, Apfelbaum demonstrates how humans might play a starring role in healing the planet.

Recenzii
In his account, both personal and visionary, of the restoration of his eighty-acre farm, Steven Apfelbaum makes a passionate plea for the respect and conservation of our ecosystems.—Jane Brox, author of Clearing Land
"Apfelbaum's book is as rich in farming adventure, environmental ideas, and profound insights as a restored prairie is rich in life and beauty."—Booklist
"Living with the land, and not just simply on it, has never been more imperative-and Steven Apfelbaum is the perfect guide to that new symbiosis. Nature's Second Chance is part memoir, part road map for a more sustainable future."—Scott Weidensaul, author of Return to Wild America
