Pioneer Conservationists of Western America by Peter Wild
A nice compendium of the various persons that created the concepts of natural resource conservation and environmentalism that serve us today. People like John Muir, Gifford Pinchot, David Brower and Aldo Leopold -- to name a few --
are presented in this book published in 1979.
