Robert Wyss reads and discusses his latest book, 'The Man Who Built the Sierra Club', which tells the story of the first Executive Director of the Sierra Club. David Brower (1912–2000) was a central figure in the modern environmental movement. As a young man growing up in Berkeley, California, Brower proved himself a fearless climber of the Sierra Nevada's dangerous peaks. After serving in the Tenth Mountain Division during World War II, he became executive director of the Sierra Club. Brower transformed the Sierra Club into a national force that challenged and stopped federally-sponsored projects that would have dammed the Grand Canyon and destroyed hundreds of millions of acres of our nation's wilderness. This uncompromising biography explores Brower's role as a steward of the modern environmental movement. What emerges from this unique portrait is a rich and robust profile of a leader who took up the work of John Muir and, along with Rachel Carson, made environmentalism the cause of our time. -- About the author: Robert Wyss is associate professor of journalism at the University of Connecticut and a journalist who has written for the New York Times, the Christian Science Monitor, the Boston Globe, Smithsonian, Yankee, and the Providence Journal. He is the author of "Covering the Environment: How Journalists Work the Green Beat."
