Covering 92 million acres from Virginia to Texas, the longleaf pine
ecosystem was, in its prime, one of the most extensive and
biologically diverse ecosystems in North America. Today, these
magnificent forests have declined to a fraction of their original
extent, threatening such species as the gopher tortoise, the
red-cockaded woodpecker, and the Venus fly-trap. Lawrence S. Earley
explores the history of these forests and the astonishing
biodiversity within them, drawing on extensive research and telling
the story through first-person travel accounts and interviews with
foresters, ecologists, biologists, botanists, and landowners. The
compelling story Earley tells here, offers hope that with continued
human commitment, the longleaf pine might not just survive, but
once again thrive.
