Description

Wade Davis has been called 'a rare combination of scientist, scholar, poet and passionate defender of all of life's diversity'.

Its essays and stories, though distilled from travels in widely separated parts of the world, are fundamentally about landscape and character, the wisdom of lives drawn directly from the land, the hunger of those who seek to rediscover such understanding, and the consequences of failure.
