Description: Written in 1968 as the dangers of pesticides are coming into notice and the conservation movement is trying to grow, this book has an unlikely family setting up a nature preserve in New Jersey. The wife, Hope, is a farm girl from upper New York. The husband, Cavit, is Turkish and must overcome his own culture to respect his wife'[s right to opinions and actions and his own background culture to leave everything to take care of itself. Hope's comments on life in Turkey are timely and insightful in this short segment of the book.Hope pushes to get property for a reserve. Cavit resists due to finances and his own indifference to the idea. The original property wins Cavit over and is the beginning of the reserve.The descriptions of the birds and animals are fascinating. The challenges are many and the worst come from local hunters backed by Wildlife Departments supporting them. Many of those problems still exist and the solutions are still elusive.The book is easy reading. It is discouraging that attitudes have changed so little in the last 50 years. It is encouraging that many of the public attitudes and laws have.
