The state is home to 1,100 miles of uninterrupted coastline defined by long stretches of beach and jagged rocky cliffs. Coastal Sage chronicles the career and accomplishments of Peter Douglas, the longest-serving, legendary executive director of the California Coastal Commission. For nearly 3 decades, Douglas fought to keep the California coast public, prevent overdevelopment, and safeguard habitat. In doing so, Douglas emerged as a leading figure in the contemporary American environmental movement and influenced public conservation efforts across the country. He co-authored California's foundational laws pertaining to shoreline management and conservation: Proposition 20 and the California Coastal Act. Many of the political battles both won and lost to save the coast from over-development and for public access are for the first time revealed in this study of the leader who was at once a visionary, warrior, and coastal sage.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
