Book details
Book overview
For some years, Mr. Borland has been writing quarterly articles for The Progressive, and here has assembled in chronological order twenty of these essays, each one treating a season of the year, the sequence covering the years 1964-1968. As always, Hal Borland makes us smell the woodsmoke in Autumn, feel the snow in January, taste the sap in the buckets in early spring, glory in the perfection of a summer dawn, and hear with a felling of mystery the honking of the wild geese in migration or the barking of a fox at midnight. When Hal Borland talks of the land he loves, the green-growing things that spring from it, we don't think in such cold terms as "balance of nature" or "conservation." We know now why the old Navajos sing: "Beauty all around me, with it I return. Now on the trail of beauty, there I return."
