Public land management and ownership came under increasing scrutiny in the 1980s, partly because of the increased value of federal lands; prized for their timber, minerals, energy, and amenity outputs. The personal touch and wisdom of one of these prolific and thoughtful writers on land use issues ensure that this book is a valuable addition to a literature to which Dr. Clawson already has made enormous contributions. For its readers, this book provides fresh insights and suggests new approaches to a problem that has been heavily discussed.
'Clawson, a researcher and writer on federal lands topics since 1936, attempts major reconsideration of the whole concept of public land ownership the report succeeds in both its purpose and its message. Recommended.'
