Our Issues Specialist published Compromising Democracy: The Rise and Fall of the Second Conquest of Western Rangelands in 2007. In his book, Shepherd reveals a unique insight into the management of federal rangelands in the West.

"Shepherd shines new light on how back room deals and political power mongers as far away as Washington D.C. are impacting on-the-ground management and protection of Western public rangelands." -- George Wuerthner, editor of WildFire: A Century of Failed Forest Policy.

You can order his book from Arches Book Company in Moab.
