Hot off the Syracuse University Press. this book by Clare Howard with photos by David Zalaznik "takes an in-depth look at the Montezuma Wetlands Complex through the overlapping lenses of environmental and social justice. Exploring the history of the land and its relationship with the people who inhabited it, Clare and David present a portrait of the marsh's exploitation and restoration, providing a hopeful perspective through which to view our future." The flap goes on to say that "through the ceaseless work of professionals and volunteers, the Montezuma Wetlands are slowly healing...." And on that note, as I puruse through my newly purchased copy, I see photos of the following persons: Chuck Gibson Kyle Gage Allyn Paul Tracy Gingrich Frank Morlock Jackie Bakker Sue Salusbury-VanCamp Kristen Moore Chris Lajewski Gail Luke A very young Tina Morris (original bald eagle hacker at MNWR) Linda Ziemba Greg Karl Lisa DeFrancesco Yours truly I've only read the introduction so far but the book looks like a keeper for all who love the Complex and demonstrate that love with Volunteer hours and/or just visits.
