Book Review

Saving Sterling Forest: The Epic Struggle to Preserve New York's Highlands. By Ann Botshon. Albany: State University of New York Press, 2006. xii + 204 pp. Illustrations, maps, tables, figures, notes, and index. Cloth $59.59, paper $19.95.

Sterling Forest comprises 20,000 acres of the New York State's scenic Hudson Highlands. Running between the New Jersey boarder and Harriman State Park, the forest contains a stretch of the Appalachian Trail, one sizable lake, and watersheds critical to northern New Jersey water supplies. It is no wilderness, of course, but it is ecologically diverse. It also boarders Tuxedo Park, a tony New York suburb, and it is just forty miles from New York City, easily accessible via the New York State Thruway.
