'The narratives in this book are of journeys made in three wildernesses-- an [Atlantic] coastal island, a Western mountain range, and the Colorado River in the Grand Canyon. Four men are involved: Charles Park, a mineral engineer... Charles Fraser, a resort developer who regards all conservationists as druids ('religious figures who sacrifice people and worship trees'), Floyd Dominy, a builder of enormous dams, and David Brower, the most militant conservationist in the world.'
