Great book. I also really liked his eulogy for Ed Ricketts in Log from the Sea of Cortez. He was an interesting guy. Iirc his wife was a Texan. Alongside Edwin Way Teal’s series among my fondest road trip books. Wandering Through Winter; “ It is the final volume in his natural history of the four seasons in North America; a 76,000 miles journey over 15 years, which began with North with the Spring, Journey Into Summer, and Autumn Across America.[5][7]” 76,000mile road trip! Living the dream. And they did it in a car not an RV as Steinbeck had. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wandering_Through_WinterI really enjoyed reading Edwin Way Teal! Have you read his “A Naturalist Buys an Old Farm” or been to Trail Wood, his old estate? I would like to visit his old place. Here’s a link to his old place: www.alltrails.com/trail/us/connecticut/edwin-way-teale-memorial-sanctuary/photosRegards, DR

Oh heck I was just close by there a few days back! I was staying in Mystic CT while mainly poking about in Noank and Stonington.
Thanks next time I’m up that way I’ll check it out. The book’s new to me as well
Only 39 miles from Noank! Definitely added to the list!
