Wildlands Philanthropy
Wildlands Philanthropy: The Great American Tradition (Earth Aware Editions, October 2008) by Tom Butler, with a Foreword by Tom Brokaw, is a testament to the bountiful and wide reaching legacy of the American conservation movement. Butler, a seasoned conservationist and author, archives the fascinating history of pioneering nature-oriented philanthropists and the unfolding story of their modern-day counterparts. Butler and world-class landscape photographer Antonio Vizcaíno take readers on a visually spectacular tour of protected natural areas saved through private initiative by American conservationists. From Alaska to Tierra del Fuego, and over the course of a century, people from all walks of life and every corner of America have used their personal wealth and energy to save wild places. The resulting state and national parks, wildlife refuges, wilderness areas, and private nature sanctuaries are the very embodiment of America the Beautiful. Collectively, these conservation lands enrich the experience of every citizen—and yet the crucial role that private philanthropy has played in their creation has been little known and celebrated. Until now. Wildlands Philanthropy is a collection of love stories about people and the land. Butler’s essays are as captivating and varied as the wilderness these conservationists have saved. The magnificent images by preeminent Mexican nature photographer Antonio Vizcaíno reflect his intention to use landscape photography as a medium for raising awareness about the planet’s diminishing biodiversity. Wildlands Philanthropy shares the inspiring stories of American heroes: Isaac Wolfe Bernheim arrived in New York City in 1867 a penniless hopeful who started out in America as an itinerant peddler, eventually settled in Kentucky and made his fortune distilling bourbon. He bequeathed thirteen thousand acres of wild “Kentucky Knob” land near Louisville and offered it to the people of Kentucky, expressing his desire for a free park where “no distinction will be shown between rich and poor, white or colored…every respectable man, woman and child will be made welcome.” Rosalie Barrow Edge, a New York society doyenne, dedicated herself to the womens’ suffrage movement; after the vote had been won she proceeded to take up the cause of wild hawks who were unprotected and shot for sport. She raised funds to lease and subsequently buy Hawk Mountain, which had been a destination for hawk killers. Today Hawk Mountain Sanctuary forms the nucleus of one of the largest blocks of protected forest in southeastern Pennsylvania. In our own time, philanthropists of both great and modest means, working alone and through land trusts, are protecting natural areas across the U.S. and around the world. Wildlands Philanthropy shares forty examples of this great American tradition, including conservation success stories in eight countries. * * * About The Authors: Tom Butler is an activist and writer focused on wilderness and biodiversity conservation. The former long-time editor of Wild Earth journal, he is a founding board member of the Northeast Wilderness Trust, and the editorial projects director of the Foundation for Deep Ecology. Antonio Vizcaino is a professional nature photographer, editor and conservationist who uses beauty to help foster a new culture that respects the value of nature. He has published twenty books of his photography and is co-founder of the conservation organization America Natural www.americanatural.org
The Vanishing America Project
"What will our country be like 100 years from now? Will there even be wild horses, bears, and mountain lions that arent confined to a zoo? Will still there be vast tracts of undiscovered natural wilderness? Will there be such a thing as a small town? Will our descendants even care? If we continue to let Progress go unchecked, these, and other cherished aspects of our country and culture, will be lost to us forever. "Precious aspects of our country and culture are in danger of vanishing within the next 2-3 generations, and photographer/writer Holt Webb is using his artistic eye to show the world what is at stake when we let Progress run rampant." Beginning in May of 2007, and continuing through the end of 2012, Artist and writer Holt Webb will be driving an ecologically-friendly motor coach, powered by Vegetable Oil and Solar Energy, around the United States documenting and publishing images and stories of American treasures that could be lost to us during our lifetimes. Holts Vanishing America Project looks to enlighten Americans on the fragile nature of our wildlife, our landscapes, and our own ways of life. Subjects include the great, but vulnerable, Okefenokee Swamp, the dying shrimping industry of the Atlantic coast, the uncertain fate of the Wild Mustang, and the search for authentic small-town life. Visiting 49 states, and traveling only by back roads, Holt seeks to capture scenes of America and American life that are all too easily forgotten in this age of technology, reality shows, and global commercialization. The images and stories he brings back are both beautiful and shocking as we are shown mans encroachment on nature, natures changing ecosystems, and our own forgotten cultural icons. America is changing fast. And, often, change is good. But sometimes change destroys the things we love about our country. Hopefully these images, and the ones that will follow as I travel across the United States, will remind people how precious, how ephemeral, and how important these aspects of our country and our culture are. Articles, presentations, photo essays, books, Fine Art gallery exhibitions, a documentary, and a TV show will be forthcoming. Holts progress can be followed at www.vanishingamerica.net.
