Women in Wilderness: Writings and Photographs

No pioneer woman, I. This book, however, caused me to kiss the vibrant earth and see far more clearly the lush gorgeousness of nature. The accompanying writings were an eclectic mix of humor, adventure, fearsome experience and the transcendent joy of meeting one's self in all the life surrounding us. Hard to beleive this is out of print!

I ordered this book sight unseen and found it provides spiritual sanctuary. It is a perfect gift for a woman who has suffered a loss in her life...the death of a loved one, a broken relationship, the loss of health or employment. When one is at the crux of loss, there are benefits in reaching out and touching the elements of "creation." In reading and meditating upon the beauty of this book, I find myself savoring each word, each photo. I highly recommend that this book be added to categories relating to "grief." It is a book that I will return to again and again in years to come. Thank you Susan & Ann Zwinger!
