Features: What attracts readers to this book is its vivid and radiant descriptions of the colorful natural scenery; the comprehensive lists of plants, trees, and rocks provided; the geological descriptions that vividly recreate geological events from the beginning of time to the present; and numerous references to the Bible and the works of two authors, Emerson and Thoreau. However, above all else, the book constantly reminds us of our need for nature and our responsibility toward it.
