In this volume, Clawson presents a comprehensive overview of the federally owned lands in the United States. Their historic and present uses are reviewed, along with current policy issues and major alternatives for their future use and management. The commodity, environmental, and amenity values of these lands are considered carefully, with specific reference to grazing, forestry, minerals extraction, oil and gas production, wildlife and wilderness preservatio, watershed protection, and recreation.As a former director of the Bureau of Land Management and a prolific writer on land and forestry policy, Clawson furnishes an up-to-date and stimulating account to all those with an interest in federal lands policy.
