Cascade Head, on the Oregon Coast between Lincoln City and Neskowin, has stunning ocean views, abundant recreational opportunities, and a rich history of ecological research and conservation. Its landscape and seascape support a multitude of species, some of which are threatened, such as the Oregon silverspot butterfly, spotted owl, and coho salmon. In The View from Cascade Head, Bruce Byers tells the fascinating story of this special place and the people who have worked to protect it. Drawing from his lifelong relationship with the Oregon Coast and recent experience living and working at Cascade Head, Byers weaves together personal observations, ecological science, and the history and philosophy of nature conservation in a series of interconnected essays.

Cascade Head is Oregon's only biosphere reserve, part of the international network of biosphere reserves coordinated by UNESCO. Biosphere reserves around the world are laboratories for understanding how humans affect ecosystems and models for how we can heal the human-nature relationship.

The View from Cascade Head illustrates three main lessons: the actions and efforts of committed individuals can make a difference; ecological mysteries still abound despite decades of scientific research; and our worldviews--how we think about our place in nature--shape our individual and collective effect on the ecosystems we inhabit. Byers helps us understand how these lessons apply everywhere and can lead us toward a more sustainable relationship with our home planet.

Beware of the smell
Color: Black
Starting with the likes about this product: 1. Beautiful design 2. Large enough for my cell phone 3. Most important it matched my HEEZ Women's Ballet Flats Shoes Now for the dislikes: 1. The chemical smell coming from the bag was soooo strong my eyes watered and my nose burned just a little. There is no way I could carry this purse with out that smell wafting through the air. IT WAS THAT STRONG. 2. The flap was a little stiff to bend, so closing was a little hard to get it in position. I'm sure if you opened and closed it a few time it would loosen up. Bottom line I only gave it a 3 star because of the smell and I am retuning it. Not sure if you air out the bag for a few days if the smell would go away but I didn't want to risk it.

Love it
I really like this handbag. The pebbled leather texture looks elegant and feels good quality. It is small but still fits my daily essentials like phone, wallet, and keys. The top handle gives a classy look, and the adjustable strap makes it easy to wear as a shoulder bag. The magnetic closure is convenient and easy to open and close. It looks stylish for both casual and dressy outfits. I am very happy with this bag.

Love everything about it!
Color: Brown
Absolutely love this bag! It’s real Leather! It’s soft and slouchy. Has MANY inside pockets which like because I carry a little bit of everything. Has plenty of room without being overly huge. I’m using the crossbody strap to keep the weight off my shoulder and my hands free. This is a good handbag…and I am picky! This is the 4th bag (brand) I have gone thru this year alone. I’m gonna stick with this one (brand) til it wears out.
