Kristine Ellis is the author of the book Montana Women from the Ground Up: Passionate Voices in Agriculture and Land Conservation, which represents the fruition of a project to collect oral histories of women ranchers, with a special focus on their roles in land conservation and stewardship. In this presentation, Ellis is introduced by Linda Brander, who had the initial idea for the project, and is followed by Betty Hedstrom, one of the ranchers featured in the book.
