Satellites in the high country
searching for the wild in the Age of Man /[electronic resource] :by Jason Mark. - Washington, DC :Island Press/Center for Resource Economics :2015. - x, 306 p. :ill., digital ;24 cm.
Prologue: Into the Wild Chapter -- 1. Bewildered Chapter -- 2. The Mountains of California -- 3. The Forest Primeval Chapter -- 4. Fall of the Wild? -- 5. The Heart of Everything That Is -- 6. The Ecology of Fear -- 7. Back to the Stone Age -- Epilogue: Wild at Heart -- Acknowledgments -- Sources & Inspiration -- Interviews.
In this publication, journalist and adventurer Jason Mark travels beyond the bright lights and certainties of our cities to seek wildness wherever it survives. In California's Point Reyes National Seashore, a battle over oyster farming and designated wilderness pits former allies against one another, as locals wonder whether wilderness should be untouched, farmed, or something in between. In Washington's Cascade Mountains, a modern-day wild woman and her students learn to tan hides and start fires without matches, attempting to connect with a primal past out of reach for the rest of society. And in Colorado's High Country, dark skies and clear air reveal a breathtaking expanse of stars, flawed only by the arc of a satellite passing--beauty interrupted by the traffic of a million conversations. These expeditions to the edges of civilization's grid show us that, although our notions of pristine nature may be shattering, the mystery of the wild still exists--and in fact, it is more crucial than ever.
