Selected Works from Eat, Drink and Be Merry
“I believe in wilderness for itself alone. I believe in the rights of creatures other than man. And I suppose I accept Nancy Newhall’s definition: Conservation is humanity caring for the future. It is the antithesis of ‘Eat, drink and be merry, for tomorrow we die.” -from Encounters With the Archdruid, by John McPhee, a book about American activist and environmentalist, David Brower.
