If all successive nature writing is a footnote to Thoreau, then New England has a strong claim to being the birthplace of the genre. But there are, as the 60 entries in this anthology demonstrate, many other regional voices that extol the wonders and beauty of the outdoors, explore local ecology, and call for environmental sustainability. Nature writing cultivates our sense of beauty, inflaming curiosity and the passion to explore. It opens us to deep, primal experiences that enrich life.
Globe Pequot, 2020. Hardcover, 259 pp.
