Camp in Colorado with a woman who came for the birds and stayed for the whole mountain summer. Olive Thorne Miller writes of song in the cottonwoods, an uproar at dawn, the tragedy of a raided nest, and a feast of wildflowers underfoot. Warm, watchful field writing from the high Rockies. Pull up a seat by her tent.

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.
