Summary: What the Ozarks region is really like!
Comment: This book by the corageous and pro-active Dr. Neil Compton is a must-have for any river lovers or black/white photo buffs. There are approximately 88 photos by John Heuston that portray the gorgeous and pristine Buffalo National River in NW Arkansas. The introduction briefly explains the reasoning behind the compilation of the book. This river was almost dammed in several places until this collection of photos made it apparent that the natural beauty needed to be preserved for prosperity. Along with the Ozark Society Foundation and other unselfish environmentalists from the Ozarks, the Buffalo was saved and designated the first (and I believe only) national river on March 1, 1972. These actions have stimulated continuing land conservation in Missouri and Arkansas, and people of all sizes, race, and age can see what determination and passion can obtain. Trust me on this one; if you've never visited the river you will be magnetized by this book and if this area is your second home (as it is mine) you will smile ear to ear and cover to cover. See you down river.
