|
| YEARNING FOR THE LAND, A Search for the Importance of Place. Simpson. NEW study of the relationship between “place” and our connection to community. By literally following the journey of John Muir from his homeland in Scotland to his family’s adopted home in the fields and forests of Wisconsin, the author explores what they, and millions of others, left behind in the Old World and what they found in their New World homes. Time and history, landscape and community are tightly intertwined. Roots matter, and hence maybe it is time to take another look at the “place” in which we raise our children, with attention to the quality of both the built and natural environments that surround them. #EE-11013, hardcover.
