In this potent collage of stories, essays, and testimony, Williams makes a stirring case for the preservation of America's Redrock Wilderness in the canyon country of southern Utah. As passionate as she is persuasive, Williams, the beloved author of Refuge, is one of the country's most eloquent and imaginative writers. The desert is her blood. Here she writes lyrically about the desert's power and vulnerability, describing wonders that range from an ancient Puebloan sash of macaw feathers found in Canyonlands National Park to the desert tortoise-an animal that can "teach us the slow art of revolutionary patience" as it extends our notion of kinship with all life. She examines the civil war being waged in the West today over public and private uses of land-an issue that divides even her own family. With grace, humor, and compassionate intelligence, Williams reminds us that the preservation of wildness is not simply a political process but a spiritual one.Binding Type: Paperback

Amazon eGift Card Makes a Great Gift and So Easy to Give
Denomination: 0, Design Name: You're the best. (Animated)
I was so thankful that I could get this gift card on the Amazon website because I just had back surgery and I couldn't get out to the store to get my daughter something for helping me for a week. I just really wanted to show her my appreciation for everything she had done. I didn't know that you could do this and then I Googled it and it said I could. It was so effortlessly and so easy to do. I definitely will be doing this in the future now that I know how well it went.
