nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - In the midst of ecological catastrophe, indigenous persecution, and the attempted mechanization of the living world, the beauty of the earth remains defiantly vibrant.

Abbey is back.' - Calvin Luther Martin, author of 'The Way of the Human Being' BEN KESSLER is or was a schoolteacher, field biologist, gardener, activist, painter, and nurseryman. He lives in a little hollow in the Blue Ridge Mountains of central Virginia.…
