The leopoldlegacy

摘要

As the National Park Service prepares to celebrate its 100th anniversary, the "Leopold Report" of 50 years ago remains influential, but much has also changed. The shack I stand looking at on this cold winter day was once a run-down chicken coop on anabandoned farm on the Wisconsin River,But, in 1935, this place would become Aldo Leopold's weekend family retreat, living laboratory and the site where he would write one of America's most enduring environmental masterpieces, "A Sand County Almanac." It is also the land that would shape eachof his children's lifelong pursuits and passions.
