The wild begins at your doorstep. In these late essays, the sage of Slabsides argues that the best nature study happens near home, where daily acquaintance turns birds and fields into old friends. You will discover Burroughs in his mellow final seasons: wise, funny, and still curious about everything that moves in the dooryard. A gentle companion for noticing more of wherever you live. Step onto the porch with the sample.
