What is A Sand County Almanac: And Sketches Here and There (Outdoor Essays & Reflections) about?

<p>First published in 1949 and praised in <b>The New York Times Book Review</b> as "a trenchant book, full of vigor and bite," <b>A Sand County Almanac</b> combines some of the finest nature writing since Thoreau with an outspoken and highly ethical regard for America's relationship to the land.<br> Written with an unparalleled understanding of the ways of nature, the book includes a section on the monthly changes of the Wisconsin countryside; another part that gathers informal pieces written by Leopold over a forty-year period as he traveled through the woodlands of Wisconsin, Iowa, Arizona, Sonora, Oregon, Manitoba, and elsewhere; and a final section in which Leopold addresses the philosophical issues involved in wildlife conservation. As the forerunner of such important books as Annie Dillard's <b>Pilgrim at Tinker Creek</b>, Edward Abbey's <b>Desert Solitaire</b>, and Robert Finch's <b>The</b> <b>Primal Place</b>, this classic work remains as relevant today as it was forty years ago.</p> <p>This special edition of the highly acclaimed A Sand County Almanac commemorates the one-hundredth anniversay of the birth of Aldo Leopold. </p>
