The Catskill Mountains shaped one of America's finest nature writers. This selection gathers John Burroughs at his best, from the snow-walkers of winter to a white day and a red fox in the hills he called home. Warm, luminous essays on the northern woods and their creatures. For the reader who wants a naturalist's love of place on every page. Retreat into the Catskills.

Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
