A revealing look at the intersection of wealth, philanthropy, and
conservation Billionaire Wilderness takes you inside the exclusive
world of the ultra-wealthy, showing how today's richest people are
using the natural environment to solve the existential dilemmas
they face. Justin Farrell spent five years in Teton County,
Wyoming, the richest county in the United States, and a community
where income inequality is the worst in the nation. He conducted
hundreds of in-depth interviews, gaining unprecedented access to
tech CEOs, Wall Street financiers, and other prominent figures in
business and politics. He also talked with the rural poor who live
among the ultra-wealthy and often work for them. The result is a
penetrating account of the far-reaching consequences of the massive
accrual of wealth and a troubling portrait of a changing American
West where romanticizing rural poverty and conserving nature can be
lucrative, socially as well as financially.
