Science writer William Sargent had intended to take a break from writing about the world's environmental crises to "tend to his own garden." Yet, as the hottest year on record unfolded with a series of massive fires, floods and the most devastating storm ever to hit the East Coast, it became increasingly difficult to keep the focus inward.What results is a raucous jaunt from his home in Ipswich Massachusetts to the far corners of the Globe to chronicle these events. In the end he draws hope from science, nature and his own deep and abiding sense of the earth and universal spirituality.
