How can America be “rewilded”? What does “eco-capitalism” really look like on the ground? What does it mean to have wolves  (the largest wolf pack in the Lower 48) and grizzlies living in your backyard? What’s the role of the United Nations in a modern world fraught with nuclear dangers,America-hating terrorists and the spectre of Ebola? All of these questions flow dramatically through the life of one man,a legendary American media mogul who all these years has lived a parallel lesser-heralded life closer to nature. In Todd Wilkinson’s critically-acclaimed book,“Last Stand:Ted Turner’s Quest to Save a Troubled Planet,” one of America’s most outspoken and controversial businessmen,environmentalist and humanitarian rises on the page. Meet Turner the “bison baron” and pathfinding practitioner of the triple bottom line. Wilkinson’s book has been circulated to every member of Congress and reached the hands of every ambassador to the United Nations,in addition to being the talk of world leaders and engaged citizens.

Wilson Last Stand is a great literary portrait of the many parts of a fascinating and important man—Ted Turner. Ted is on a mission to save the world and the world should be grateful to have an energetic and imaginative friend.” —Tom Brokaw Last Stand is an example of the clarity of double-vision:Todd Wilkinson as a visionary writer and Ted Turner as his visionary subject. We see how revolutionary actions with revolutionary patience not only have the capacity to change the world,but our consciousness.” —Terry Tempest Williams
