Millman journeys through the west of Ireland, a rugged geography sometimes referred to as "the last place on earth where conversation is not dead." Along the way, he meets tinkers, tramps, rat charmers, pig-gelders, and farriers -- craftspeople who have become anachronisms in an increasingly industrialized country. This book is at once a lament for and a celebration of a dying way of life. SIGNED BY THE AUTHOR.

Nature: A Thoreau Country - Henry David Thoreau, Esther Howe Wheeler Wild Fruits: Thoreau's Rediscovered Last Manuscript - Henry David Thoreau, Bradley P. Dean, ed. (Hardback)
A photographic slide lecture come into print, presented by Esther Howe Wheeler. Color photographs are paired with quotes from Henry David Thoreau.
Paperback, 168 pp.
The distinctly American gospel -- never before published -- of our great nature writer, mystic, ecologist, and prophet.The final harvest of a great writer's last years, Wild Fruits presents Thoreau's sacramental vision of nature--a vision compelling in part because it grew out of an approach to the natural world at once scientific and mystical. The difficulties of Thoreau's handwriting, method of composition, notations, and pagination have kept his final observations and meditations from publication until now; thanks to the assiduous efforts of Thoreau specialist Bradley Dean, this great work can finally be brought to light. Features illustrations by Abigail Rorer. This book was reviewed in Thoreau Society Bulletin 230, Winter 2000, p. 3. May also be available in paperback.
