Dick Russell, a successful author and conservation activist, has written a book about the restoration efforts called Striper Wars, and on Aug. 4 he plans to give a presentation and sign books. Russell's talk will be at 7 p.m. at the Audubon Society of Rhode Island's Environmental Education Center, in Bristol. The event is free and open to the public, but reservations are required. Call (401) 245-7500, ext. 18. For his efforts on behalf of stripers, Russell was given the Chevron Conservation Award in 1988. A longtime sportfisherman, Russell spent three years fighting for stronger regulations to protect stripers. He organized a national conference in Washington and made numerous radio and television appearances. Russell's last book, Eye of the Whale, followed the migration of gray whales from Mexico's Baja peninsula to northern Alaska and Siberia. It was named the Best Book of 2001 by the Los Angeles Times.
