    David Brower, “The Arch Druid,” as writer John McPhee called him, shaped the modern environmental movement. He directed or founded organizations including the Sierra Club, Friends of the Earth, and the Earth Island Institute and staffed them with young activists whom he inspired with his passion for the land and whose lives he transformed by his belief in their capacity for greatness.

    In celebration of the 100th anniversary of Brower’s birth, his son Kenneth Brower interviewed 19 environmental leaders, disciples and friends about his father’s impact on them personally as well as on the larger community. Amid talks of how David Brower pulled them from oblivion, sometimes drank them under the table, and often set them on courses for the rest of their lives, a nuanced portrait emerges not just of a complex man but of a movement still suffused with his spirit.
