N2  - "In places as remote as Alaska's North Slope and as familiar as a midwestern family farm there are tensions that exist between nature and the people who define a given land as home. In seventeen essays, award-winning writer and naturalist John Hildebrand takes a clear-eyed look at how these forces move and change the people and the environment."--BOOK JACKET
