LEELANAU – A new book published by the Leelanau Conservancy provides a special record of its 27-year history of preserving some of the county’s most beautiful lands and farms. “Why We Preserve,” with 52 color photographs by iconic Leelanau photographer Ken Scott and seven essays by writers including renowned chef Mario Batali; CBS Sunday Morning news correspondent Martha Teichner; and Traverse, Northern Michigan’s Magazine publisher Deborah Wyatt Fellows.
“Putting this book together was a joy,” said Leelanau Conservancy Executive Director Tom Nelson, whose essay opens the book. “Ken’s photos are simply beautiful, and each one captures the essence of these places that are so spectacular. When you look at the book as a whole, and all of the places that have been forever protected by the Leelanau Conservancy, well … it’s breathtaking!”
