It is wrong when it does otherwise. <p/>Few have taken Leopold's vision more to heart than Steven I. Apfelbaum, who has, over the last thirty years, transformed his eighty-acre Stone Prairie Farm in Wisconsin into a biologically diverse ecosystem of prairie, wetland, spring-fed brook, and savanna. In healing his land, Apfelbaum demonstrates how humans might play a starring role in healing the planet.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>In his account, both personal and visionary, of the restoration of his eighty-acre farm, Steven Apfelbaum makes a passionate plea for the respect and conservation of our ecosystems.--Jane Brox, author of <i>Clearing Land</i> <p/>Apfelbaum's book is as rich in farming adventure, environmental ideas, and profound insights as a restored prairie is rich in life and beauty.--<i>Booklist</i> <p/>Living with the land, and not just simply on it, has never been more imperative-and Steven Apfelbaum is the perfect guide to that new symbiosis. <i>Nature's Second Chance</i> is part memoir, part road map for a more sustainable future.--Scott Weidensaul, author of <i>Return to Wild America</i><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Steven I.
