Travels in Orkney, Belize, the Everglades, and Greece. "A tour de force of personal narrative. . . . Astonishingly fluid and keenly observant." --The Boston Globe

Review:
Kirkpatrick Sale says Emily Hiestand travels with "the mind of an ecologist, the heart of a pagan, and the words of a poet." From peat moors to mangrove roots, from fire corals to pelagic caves and underwater sponges named after "black chimneys, orange softballs, stinking pillows and vases, chicken livers, and lavender tubes," Hiestand's descriptions of nature are hard to resist and the rest of her travels are every bit as delightful.
From the Back Cover:
'A dazzling different kind of travel book...It is a rare experience to share the very rich and thoughtful hours of Emily Hiestand.'--Washington Post -- 'If one must travel, one should do it with the eyes of a child, the mind of an ecologist, the heart of a pagan, and the words of a poet. Astonishingly, Emily Hiestand has all of that.'--Kirkpatrick Sale, author of The Conquest of Paradise
