Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
For half a century, James Alger has made regular forays into the woodlands, reflecting on its sights, sounds and smells - from the escapades of the smallest insect, to expansive cumulonimbus billows, to the peace in a sunset. Part chronicle and part quest, "At Home in the Woodlands" is peppered with light-hearted musings while touching on themes of discovery, spirituality, and coming to peace with the inescapable laws of nature. The book lets the reader take a break from modern-day distractions and refocus on our natural world.
