Reviews

""Joseph Whitson’s brilliant book—methodologically innovative and forcefully narrated—presents a stinging critique of the ‘recreation industrial complex’ and the methods by which it has perpetuated wilderness myths that serve the ongoing dispossession of Native cultures. This is cutting-edge scholarship and a powerful political intervention that centers Native resistance to neoliberal corporate capitalism and the thoughtless conflation of recreation with social justice and conservation.""—Mark Fiege, Montana State University
