| This is a great overview for those curious about the future of Eastern hemlocks (and of beeches) due to invasive pests. A good pairing to The Annihilation of Nature: Human Extinction of Birds and Mammals, which focuses on the extinctions of birds and ...more | |

The Stranger in the Woods: The Extraordinary Story of the Last True Hermit
by Michael Finkel (Goodreads Author) |

“She writes her mother letters in the margins of her notebook, which is against the rules (manual, p. 22). There is no way to send a letter anymore. Also Dana, for sure, by now, is dead.
