Robert Stipe, editor, and my friend from down the road in Chapel Hill.
_The American Mosaic_ is probably the title you are thinking of; not
necessarily a "philosophy" but more a college level text for a broad
overview of the preservation movement in the U.S, which includes some
"why we do this." The original paean from the 60s that first
crystallized preservation philosophy (SAT question: ________ is to
preservation movement as "Silent Spring" is to environmental movement?)
in the U.S. is _With Heritage So Rich_.
