Gifford Pinchot and the Making of Modern Environmentalism Char Miller Gifford Pinchot was a more complicated figure than has generally been recognized, and more than half a century after his death, he continues to provoke controversy. This new biography, the first in more than three decades, offers a fresh interpretation of the life and work of the famed conservationist and progressive politician. Historian Char Miller sets forth an engaging description and analysis of the man—his character, passions, and personality—and the larger world through which he moved. The author brings together insights from cultural and social history and recently discovered primary sources to support a new interpretation of Pinchot, whose activism not only helped define environmental politics in early 20th century America but remains strikingly relevant today. 384 pages, softcover. Island Press: A Shearwater Book.
