Description
|
|
|
|
Pairing his atmospheric color photographs—up to 17 x 9 inches—with selections from the writings of Henry David Thoreau, Stephen Gorman brings a fresh perspective to the wilderness and a thoughtful sense of humanity's place in nature to the far reaches of untamed New England. "[This] book for all seasons ... depicts an adventurer's New England, from gray frozen peaks to silvered ponds to aquamarine waves washing over blue-tinged sand under an azure sky. The quotations range from a spare sentence to a fat paragraph, nothing too heavy, but always something to make you think.... [The author] pairs 'Give me a Wildness whose glance no civilization can endure...' with a sunset over a pond—the sky so many shades of pink, orange and yellow, the trees so dark, the pond so red, it'll take your breath away."—Concord Monitor
