Description
This collection of short stories, poems and essays includes the work of more than forty
writers from seven countries, writing about wildlife, adventure and the
environment.
A perfect companion for your hiking bag, camp pack or lawn chair. This collection explores adventures ranging from horse pack trips in the Andes Mountains to birding in the bogs of northern Minnesota and roaming with the wild boars of Fukushima.
"This collection takes readers from Montana to Arizona, Maine to South America, and the Arctic to Australia...into the heart of the land and sea, into the heart of the human experiencing the land and sea... These poems, essays, and stories are wild to their core and oh so beautiful."
- Sean Prentiss, author of Finding Abbey, and editor of the anthology Environmental and Nature Writing

"This collection takes readers from Montana to Arizona, Maine to South America, and the Arctic to Australia...into the heart of the land and sea, into the heart of the human experiencing the land and sea... These poems, essays, and stories are wild to their core and oh so beautiful."- Sean Prentiss, author of Finding Abbey, and editor of the anthology Environmental and Nature Writing "Like birdsong on a crisp spring morning, this collection is joyous and varied. Riverfeet Press continues to create literature that brings voices established and new to its readers. Each will have their favorites, but the common denominator, perhaps, across all, as Chris La Tray tells us, is that when we find ourselves "in the presence of the wild world," we can be assured we're "in the presence of the Divine."
- Andrew C. Gottlieb, author of Flow Variations and Halflives
