NOAH'S CHOICE
by
Charles C. Mann and Mark L. Plummer

--Senator Slade Gorton

 
WAR ON THE WEST

PROPERTY MATTERS
by
James V. DeLong

"With stinging wit, James DeLong documents the outrageous war against property owners being waged by arrogant bureaucrats and their special interest group allies. He convincingly argues that this wide-ranging attack is of deep concern to all of us; not just to farmers and logger, but to suburban homeowners, conservationists, and computer programmers alike. PROPERTY MATTERS is both a cautionary tale of government run amok and a bold call to action."
--David McIntosh, R-IN, Chairman, House Subcommittee on Economic Growth, Natural Resources and Regulatory Affairs

--Mark Killian, Speaker of the Arizona House of Representatives.

ENVIRONMENTALISM AT THE CROSSROADS

--Carole Walden, parent
