The Face of the Fields
Dallas Lore Sharp
164 pages~3 hr 17 min read11 chapters$4.99
Turtle eggs for a great scientist, the edge of night, the scarcity of skunks: Dallas Lore Sharp finds drama in the New England fields. His essays roam from nature writing to a clam farm's quiet conservation, always sharp-eyed and warm. Classic outdoor writing from a beloved American voice. Step into the fields with a naturalist who misses nothing.
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.
