Aldo Leopold's A Sand County Almanac has enthralled generations of nature lovers and conservationists and is indeed revered by everyone seriously interested in protecting the natural world. Hailed for prose that is "full of beauty and vigor and bite" (The New York Times), it is perhaps the finest example of nature writing since Thoreau's Walden.
Now this classic work is available in a completely redesigned and lavishly illustrated gift edition, featuring over one hundred beautiful full-color pictures by Michael Sewell, one of the country's leading nature photographers. Sewell, whose work has graced the pages of Audubon and Sierra magazines, walked Leopold's property in Wisconsin and shot these photographs specifically for this edition, allowing readers to see Sand County as Leopold saw it. The resulting layout is spectacular. But the heart of the book remains Leopold's carefully rendered observations of nature. Here we follow Leopold throughout the year, from January to December, as he walks about the rural Wisconsin landscape, watching a woodcock dance skyward in golden afternoon light, or spying a rough-legged hawk dropping like a feathered bomb on its prey. And perhaps most important are Leopold's trenchant comments throughout the book on our abuse of the land and on what we must do to preserve this invaluable treasure. This edition also includes two of Leopold's most eloquent essays on conservation, "The Land Ethic" and "Marshland Elegy."
With this gift edition of A Sand County Almanac, a new generation of readers can walk beside one of America's most respected naturalists as he conveys the beauty of a marsh before sunrise or the wealth of history to be found in an ancient oak.

評分一月,和雪一样单纯和平静;而二月是落在斧子和锯子上的大风雪后的阳光;三月,大雁冲破了暖流的雾霭;四月,春潮引起了鲤鱼的热情;蒲公英吹拂过五月的土地,高原鹬在鸣唱;一条鳟鱼要在六月到上游去;七月的清晨,有启明星白色的尾光;后来河流拖着沙砾画了一幅八月的画;树...
評分我希望每个看到这个书评的人都来读一读。看看美国在一个世纪以前,为了发展经济,为了房地产,都做了些什么。看看那时候的人,都是怎么样对待土地的,怎么样认识土地的。再想想今天的我们,都正在做些什么。 我不知道这本小册子在历史上有着怎样的地位。当我读这本书的时候,感...
