Whether he's laying down to watch a sundew plant entrap an insect or paddling out into the middle of a lake to exchange yodeling calls with a pair of loons, Ferguson exudes a delighted, boyish enthusiasm. By the end, you may find you've been seduced from the buzz and clutter of your life and won over to the "certain old brand of quiet" he set out to find. New York Times |

Prose as inviting and uplifting as a walk in the
woods. With a sense of discovery, humor, and a deep reverence for his
subject, Ferguson reclaims the natural world for himself, and for the
reader as well.

These woodland interludes are quick and bright, dazzling amid the bosky gloom. Writing so powerful that it's hard not to share the author's delight to be back in the woods.
