Synopsis

Praised by the Boston Globe as practically a hymn to wildness. Spectacular illustrations, lyrical text, oversized book. There are lessons we can learn from the wilderness for there is wisdom in the wildness of things, a strength in flying upon one's own wings, a harmony in wearing one's own colors. The creatures of the wild have long been trying to tell us some immense secret that we have not quite heard. But we will hear it if we slow down a little, if we listen, watch and wait.
