Reading the woods;: Seeing more in nature's… di Vinson Brown
I picked this up for a couple dollars to support some environmental group a couple years ago. The book is ancient by naturalist standards being from 1969. While books like Rachel Carson's "Silent Spring" predate it, their subject matter wasn't as laser-focused meaning it aged better. Brown details specific trees and unfortunately, the landscape has changed so much in 50+ years that I don't think all of this necessarily still applies. Still, there was a lot of knowledge shared and I think I did come away with some good information to keep in mind as I walk the woods at and around my home.… (altro)

Warriors of the Rainbow: Strange and Prophetic… di William Willoya
I heard about this book via Greenpeace and The Rainbow Warrior vessel. I downloaded the book and then didn't read it - too busy, other things took precedence. However, after reading Kent Nerburn's book; Neither Dog Nor Wolf, I moved onto it. A great book, pulling together a host of thoughts into a cohesive whole. It's one I fully recommend and will read again...
