The perfect gift—in any amount—with that personal touch of classic old world charm.
From Whidbey Island down this way comes fisherman, wilderness guide, and meditation teacher Kurt Hoelting with an informed, inspiring new book praising the near, The Circumference of Home: One Man's Yearlong Quest for a Radically Local Life (Da Capo). The yearlong 'quest' had Kurt Hoelting stay within 100 kilometers from home. "Beyond the disturbing news of climate change looms the inescapable fact that we are all personally, viscerally, involved ... Hoelting's love for the landscapes and seascapes of his native Pacific Northwest transforms the grief of global warming into an adventure of the body and spirit. Written in the best tradition of American nature writing from Thoreau to Gary Snyder, this wonderful book will bring you deep pleasure—and hope." - Norman Fischer. "The world looks different when you're walking through it, not driving. You notice, and as this fine book makes clear, some of the things you notice are very sad. But you will also see the world as it is, which can't help but be beautiful." - Bill McKibben.
