In this book, David Brendan Hopes fuses the spiritual and the mystical with the natural, invoking the possibility of grace. Writing about hiking, camping, and particularly about birds, he invites readers to mark the moment when flower, bird, and mountain announce themselves to the soul, bristling and wondrous.
Many pages marked with pink sticky notes! Quotes to revisit. Passages to re-read to guide my memories back to similar moments on trails. The last three pages made me wish the book wasn’t going to end yet.
