Binkley C. 2002. "No Better Heritage Than Living Trees": Women's Clubs and Early Conservation in Humboldt County. Western Historical Quarterly. 33(2):1-18
Taken from the introduction: "This article examines the role of organized women's civic groups that fought to protect redwoods in Humboldt County, California, during the first decades of the twentieth century. By articulating a gendered view of nature, women's club leaders mobilized women's efforts, broadened women's public influence, and greatly expanded both the reach and the impact of the early conservation movement"
