Welfare Ranching: The Subsidized Destruction of the American West

Join editor George Wuerthner and National Public Lands Grazing Campaign organizer Andy Kerr as they discuss and present slides from the groundbreaking new book entitled Welfare Ranching: The Subsidized Destruction of the American West. Welfare Ranching reveals the damaging practices of livestock production while dispeling the popular myths surrounding the Old West and documenting the costs of ranching on public lands through a series of powerful photographs and essays. This publication is a testimony to an environmental tragedy and an expression of hope that America's heritage of wild and vibrant western landscapes will be restored and renewed.
