American Earth: Environmental Writing Since Thoreau


This summer I'm reading American Earth, edited by Bill McKibben. I bought it a few years ago, and just dipped in and out of various essays, but now I'm going through all of them, which has been rewarding. It's a thorough, and huge, collection. Mostly essays, either personal or more scientific and formal, but also with some fiction excerpts, and some poems and song lyrics. Plus two sections of photos.
