Summary

With an eloquence unmatched by any living writer, Verlyn Klinkenborg observes the juncture at which our lives and the natural world intersect. His yearlong meditation on the rigors and wonders of country life-encompassing memories of his family's Iowa homestead, time spent in the wide open spaces of the American West, and his experiences on the small farm in upstate New York where he lives with his wife-abounds with vicarious pleasures for the reader as it indelibly records and celebrates the everyday beauty of the world we inhabit.
