Description: Restoring Nature examines how the National Park Service has sought to reestablish native species and eradicate the exotic flora and fauna from Channel Islands National Park, and explores why the damage happened in the first place.
Review Quotes: "I know of no other book that examines rigorously the effects of National Park Service policies in the Channel Islands. All of the material in Restoring Nature is handled in a balanced, fair-minded manner. . . . Critically important, where possible the authors have woven fact-laden, scientific material into an engaging narrative."--Thomas J. Osborne, author of Coastal Sage: Peter Douglas and the Fight to Save California's Shore
