A love letter to the natural world and a memoir of a man's relationship with it, this book explores the ways in which nature can shape our identities, connect us to our ancestors, and provide solace in the face of adversity. The author, a Black man raised on a small family farm in Georgia, weaves together personal anecdotes, scientific observations, and historical research to create a lyrical and evocative portrait of the natural world and its power to heal and inspire. From the vibrant colors and sounds of the forest to the quiet beauty of the night sky, Lanham reveals the profound impact that nature has had on his life and the ways in which it has helped him to understand himself and his place in the world.
