Beautifully illustrated with scratchboard art by Evan Cantor, Far from Tame provides an alternate map of this region, charting new boundaries based on natural communities and ecosystems. Allmann writes of tallgrass and brush prairies, mountain rainshadows and Lake Superior storms, savannas and blufflands, green-eyed dragonflies, black bear migrations, beech trees, and land still rising from the weight of glaciers. The sites she visits range from the grasslands of western Minnesota to the shores of Lake Erie with stops along the way at the Door Peninsula, the dunes of Lake Michigan, and Drummond Island.
