Join guest readers as we explore the conservation and land ethic writings of Aldo Leopold. His most famous work, A Sand County Almanac, published in 1949, is still popular with naturalists and writers alike. Readers will share essays from this book, his other books and from other like-minded writers.

Ames Reads Leopold will be in the Farwell T. Brown Auditorium on the first floor. The readings and program are sponsored by the Outdoor Alliance of Story County, Story County Conservation and Ames Public Library, Friends of Ada Hayden Heritage Park, Iowa State University (ISU) Master of Fine Arts in Creative Writing and Environment, ISU Bioethics Program, Leopold Center for Sustainable Agriculture, Office of Sustainability/Live Green! Initiative, ISU Sustainable Agriculture Graduate Student Association.
