Customer Reviews

Read a beautifully written book about a devastating process.

R. Edward Grumbine is a storyteller. Above is a book that discusses the current crisis regarding the environment, how we got there, and where we are headed. Swirled together are stories of natural (and personal) discoveries with political and scientific explanations. His ability to cover these ranges of interest only make the reality of this subject even more shocking. This is as much poetry as it is a textbook. It is a wake up call, and a call to arms. I highly recommend this book for those who choose the wonder and beauty of the wilderness, and for those who are afraid of a world without it.
