- Abstract
"Bears Ears: Landscape of Refuge and Resistance" by Andrew Gulliford is a comprehensive exploration of the history and significance of the Bears Ears region in San Juan County, Utah. Gulliford delves into the origins of landmarks in the area and provides a detailed account of its various inhabitants, from hunter gatherers to Mormon settlers. The book also examines the ongoing legal and cultural battle over the status of Bears Ears as a national monument, highlighting the clash between Indigenous and ecological interests and local businesses and national industries. Gulliford's personal narrative and deep connection to the region add a unique perspective to the book, making it a valuable resource for those interested in the complex issues surrounding land protection in the United States.
