great read
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
This is a great read. I had just heard of Mary's work and ordered quite few of her books. They are all wonderful. She has such a wonderful way to look at nature and the world in general.

I was given this book and have found it comfortably engaging, gently surprising and satisfying complete--like a bowl of gourmet soup. A stunning display of the writers craft, an eye that dotes on nature's details and a mind that deftly connects reader to subject. A joy.
