"This was a formative book for me when I was a senior in high school and in later college years. It expresses so eloquently how I feel about wilderness and what is left of our natural environment. "Hurry and take the road to the roadless area, because it won't be roadless long." Written in 1966, and more true than ever, now. "Not to forget but to remember". Thanks for reminding me, Janis."
"This is a wondrous catalogue of journeying, tied into some of the most notable opinions on the discovery of life without the cliche passings of those who never bother to search the world and themselves.
I was given this by my father upon graduating from college, a very personal thing that he loves to do. It shaped him, I am sure, and it has done wonders for me. I am surprised to find that I am actually the first to even review it - it has been out for decades and is really a rare find in terms of quality, opaque, inward revelation.
I am not a pushy person. However: get out there and read it! :)"
