Description: Offered for sale: Angela C. Halfacre, Delicate Balance: Constructing a Conservation Culture in the South Carolina Lowcountry (Columbia: University of South Carolina Press, 2012). From the book notes: "The South Carolina lowcounty is an incomparably beautiful national treasure, rich with sumptuous visas, beaches, marshes, live oaks, long-leaf pines, inlets, creeks, hummocks, and more. No longer a secret, the region is loved, visited, and occupied by more and more people each year. Angela Halfacre presents an optimistic picture of the positive steps that have been taken, especially in recent history, to help protect, manage, and carefully guide growth in the lowcountry. More important, she also discusses the dangers of unwise, unmanaged, and unplanned growth and development--a valuable lesson for citizens and policymakers alike. A Delicate Balance encourages and challenges current and future residents of our precious South Carolina coast to accept our responsibility for stewardship of this special part of the planet. It is up to all of us to care for its delicate, beautiful nature for the generations to come." The author is an instructor in the Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences and Political Science at Furman University in Greenville, SC. Hardcover with dust jacket, 1st ed., b/w ills. NEW!
