Book Reviews of Sand County Almanac (Outdoor Essays & Reflections)

Book Review: Details the magic and mystery in every day nature
Summary: 5 Stars

A Sand County Almanac is a collection of naturalist writings, where detail and emotional highlights take the reader through an eye opening experience. The author looks at every day natural events, phenomena, and lives...and points out the often missed treasures, magic, and mystery of what surrounds us. While a naturalistic narrative might sound mundane, it is a page turner. Having one's eyes opened to the often ignored beauty that surrounds us is as tantalizing and refreshing as an action or romance novel. The book is magnificently crafted and even naturalist readers are sure to realize new experiences, and even those without past nature experience will be fascinated with these perspectives.
