What is The old Marlborough Road : a journey into wonder about?

Zoland Books, 1991. TRADE PAPERBACK, STATED FIRST EDITION. (ISBN 0-944072-16-X) Good tight copy, good wrappers. "We were soaked and covered with mud and we didn't care. The rain stops for no one; the rain demands acceptance. And a warm rain in a green world invites a glorious irresponsibilty." With perception and humor, Ken Wolgemuth offers a personal mythology; the journey on one explorer on disused roads. Through his subtle discoveries from the falling of a leaf to the scratching of a beetle in the underbrush we are invited to reflect to our place in nature. Wolgemuth, a Pennsylvania naturalist, reaches across the years to remember himself as a child, awestruck by nature, thrilled with his own potential and with the unsolved mysteries of the world around him. This reunion of the individual with the experience of wonder brings a perception of nature all too often overshadowed by scientific analysis. "The Old Marlbourgh Road" shows that nature, seen truly, is "at once the stuff of science and of dreams." Nature, memoir.
