A gifted young naturalist walks the fields and shores near Philadelphia and writes down everything that stirs. Godman's rambles capture small creatures, quiet meadows, and the keen delight of noticing, all gathered after his early death. Gentle, observant essays from an American original. Take a slow walk with a naturalist who found a whole world close to home.

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.
