David Lowenthal. George Perkins Marsh: Prophet of Conservation. Foreword by William Cronon. (Weyerhaeuser Environmental Books.) Paperback edition. Seattle: University of Washington Press. 2003. Pp. xxv, 605. Cloth $40.00, paper $26.95.

When William Cronon, editor of the University of Washington Press's Weyerhaeuser Environmental Books series, asked David Lowenthal to update his George Perkins Marsh: Versatile Vermonter (1958) for republication, Lowenthal found that so much new material had been discovered and the historiographical context so changed that he instead rewrote and expanded it. The result is this new work, a very well-written and thoughtful biography of the author of Man and Nature (1864), the book internationally credited as the intellectual font of conservation and environmentalism.
