Soil Conservation in the United States : Policy and Planning

Editorial Reviews
Review

"Steiner combines a solid and sophisticated understanding of his subject matter as well as a deft hand as a writer. His understanding of the nuance in history is particularly impressive and ought to be emulated by other planners... If readers are to purchase one book on American soil conservation history and policy, this is clearly the one they ought to acquire!" -- Journal of Rural Studies

"A bold solution to the inability of contemporary soil conservation policies to curb the increasing excesses of soil erosion in the United States." -- Landscape Journal

"Steiner's vision is vital and timely, as sustainable agriculture practices that can slow or elimonate soil erosion have begun to enter the mainstream of American agriculture." -- Farmland Preservation Report
