Dawn at Mineral King Valley by Daniel P. Selmi

This story is foundational in environmental law. Selmi details how the Sierra Club sought to stop the Disney Company from constructing a ski resort in a remote section of Sequoia National Park. The outcome of this case set a firm precedent and is still holding up in connection to current environmental cases where there are strong tensions between public lands and private interests.
