In seven pages, George B. Schaller delivers both an impassioned plea to preserve the natural world and a promise of high adventure that justifies preservation. It’s this balance of tones more than his actual skill as a writer that piques my interest and begs the question, “Will the next two hundred and seventy pages deliver what the first seven have addressed?”.

Schaller trades between resolutely conveying fact and wistfully recalling narrative so often as to cause Stones of Silence to slip into a strange, but sensational, meditative experience.
