Our modern idea of what a healthy landscape looks like and how it functions is distorted by the fur trade that once trapped out millions of beavers from North America's lakes and rivers. Goldfarb shares the powerful story about one of the world's most influential species. He explains how North America was colonized, how our landscapes have changed over the centuries, and how beavers can help us fight drought, flooding, wildfire, extinction, and the ravages of climate change. -- adapted from jacket

"A bold new voice in nature writing, from the front lines of Britain's rewilding movement Bringing Back the Beaver is farmer-turned-ecologist Derek Gow's inspirational and often riotously funny firsthand account of how the movement to rewild the British landscape with beavers has become the single most dramatic and subversive nature conservation act of the modern era. Since the early 1990s - in the face of outright opposition from government, landowning elites and even some conservation professionals - Gow has imported, quarantined and assisted the reestablishment of beavers in waterways across England and Scotland. In addition to detailing the ups and downs of rewilding beavers, Bringing Back the Beaver makes a passionate case as to why the return of one of nature's great problem solvers will be critical as part of a sustainable fix for flooding and future drought, whilst ensuring the creation of essential lifescapes that enable the broadest possible spectrum of Britain's wildlife to thrive"--

Legends are made from what most people thought could never be done. Someone did the impossible. Something happened that no one thought would ever happen. Sheer determination wins out over the unthinkable task. And so it is with the legend of Bucky the beaver. His story is carved in trees all over the world and passed on by father to child throughout time. His story is one of remarkable determination and willpower in spite of his handicap—his buckteeth—and the tremendous teasing from all the other beavers. He alone would set the example for all that would give an ear to the story. No one could believe that a little bucktoothed beaver could change the world for the better and set the bar so high for us all to aspire to. Never give up!
