About Ozark Society and Ozark Society Foundation Publications

The Ozark Society was founded in 1962 as an organized effort to save the Buffalo River from proposed dams.  After a 10-year struggle, the Buffalo River was designated as America’s first National River in 1972.  In order to further its aims of conservation, education, and recreation, in 1967, the Society created the Ozark Society Foundation.  Its first published book was Kenneth L. Smith’s The Buffalo River Country, which remains in print today.  Since that time more than 25 publications have been produced by the Ozark Society and the Ozark Society Foundation under the Ozark Society Books designation.  In addition, Ozark Society Books markets other quality outdoor publications as a service to purchasers, with a 10 percent discount to members.

All the publications listed are sold to individuals.  Books and maps owned by the Ozark Society are also sold to retailers.  Trade orders for books published by the Ozark Society Foundation are handled by the University of Arkansas.

Both maps show routes of access to river and wilderness, and floaters' car-shuttle routes.  Map users will find it easy to calculate the mileage of any trail hike or river trip. The West Half map has a list of day hikes graded by difficulty. Both maps contain text information for hikers, floaters, horseback riders, for anyone wanting to explore the Buffalo.
