Book Description

Finalist for the 2020 WILLA Literary Award, Creative Nonfiction Inspired by her first breathtaking trip in the Grand Canyon, Harriet Hunt Burgess dedicated her life to saving land for future generations. Beginning in the 1970s, she persevered through four decades--overcoming daunting obstacles and taking extraordinary risks--to conserve hundreds of thousands of acres of land in the American West. Without Burgess, iconic and irreplaceable landscapes like the Lake Tahoe region and the California coast would be much different today. As Harriet Burgess once explained, "The land we save is our legacy. It's what we give to our children." The Grand Canyon was the catalyst for Harriet's conservation mission and the spark for Grand Canyon to Hearst Ranch. Author Elizabeth Austin has interwoven her own exhilarating and life-changing dory trip through the depths of the Grand Canyon with the compelling story of Harriet's early life and five of her most significant conservation achievements as founder-president of the American Land Conservancy.

The customer support team is responsive and always ready to assist. With ListenBook, I can enjoy my own audio content with unparalleled ease and comfort. Noise reduction on ListenBook Pro is impressive. My recordings sound crystal clear. ListenBook has completely changed how I enjoy audiobooks. The app is packed with features like customizable skip intervals, playback speed, and sleep timers. The interface is clean and easy to navigate. Five stars! Solid performance, but not outstanding. The narrator did a fine job, though their tone was a bit monotonous at times. The story itself was engaging enough, but I wouldn’t call it unforgettable.

ListenBook's noise reduction feature in the Pro version is a game-changer. I can now focus on the story even in noisy environments. This is exactly what I look for in an audiobook! The narrator's pleasant voice and excellent diction made even complex passages easy to follow. I appreciated the subtle but effective use of pauses and emphasis that added depth to the listening experience. Finished it in record time because I couldn't stop listening.
