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.
