Spirit of the Siskiyous: The Journals of a Mountain Naturalist

Rating:
Summary: Beautiful words, beautiful drawings
Review: "Spirit of the Siskiyous" is a rare, precious book by a woman with a keen sense of observation and perception. Not only can she translate her knowledge and insights in words, but she can also enhance her writing with drawings and watercolors that visually capture the often profound subtilities of flowers, seasons, bugs and birds. The book is one to be read slowly so that it can be enjoyed graciously. It's a small gem, one that will delight and enlighten its readers.
