Description: Description: A naturalist’s observations of nature as he travels to field stations and visits other scientists. Lovely writing for all those interested in Natural History. From the book publisher’s blurb: “John Seibert Farnsworth's delightful field notes are not only about nature, but from nature as well. In Nature Beyond Solitude, he lets us peer over his shoulder as he takes his notes. We follow him to a series of field stations where he teams up with scientists, citizen scientists, rangers, stewards, and grad students engaged in long-term ecological study, all the while scribbling down what he sees, hears, and feels in the moment. With humor and insight, Farnsworth explores how communal experiences of nature might ultimately provide greater depths of appreciation for the natural world. In the course of his travels, Farnsworth visits the Hastings Natural History Reservation, the Santa Cruz Island Reserve, the Golden Gate Raptor Observatory, the H.J. Andrews Experimental Forest, the North Cascades Institute's Environmental Learning Center, and more.” About the Author: A lifelong student of literary natural history, John Farnsworth teaches environmental writing and literature at Santa Clara University. He holds a PhD from the University of Stirling, in Scotland, and masters degrees from Antioch and Stanford universities. For more than a decade, his signature course, “Writing Natural History,” culminated with a sea kayak expedition to the Isla Espiritu Santo archipelago of Baja California during spring break. His current research focuses on how long-term ecological studies foster community. VISIT MY EBAY STORE FOR OTHER ITEMS OF INTEREST(Click This Link) Shipping: Free media rate shipping in US.
