In this eloquent collection of original essays, award-winning writers from the United States, Canada, Great Britain, and Australia describe a personal encounter with the natural world that moved them and led to a new level of understanding or awareness.

Writers included in this collection are: Diane Ackerman, Margaret Atwood, Rick Bass, Sharon Butala, Wade Davis, Robert Drewe, Timothy Findley, Richard Flanagan, Bill McKibben, Jennifer Potter, Beth Powning, David Quammen, David Reynolds, David Adams Richards, and David Suzuki.
