Great Literature of Nature & Travel

I was looking to read some Hoagland & stumbled across this collection of essays. A great & enjoyable read. He reminds me of a combination of David Quammen & Peter Matthessien. My one complaint is that several of the essay are on similar topics & at times parts of certain essay resonate closely with others in the book - giving a sense of repetition.But over all, highly recommended - you won't be disappointed.
