William Stanek's The Living...

The Editors of Our American...

Yellowstone was old long before anyone imagined a national park.

Beneath its forests and snow lies a restless volcanic system. Across its valleys move bison, elk, wolves, bears, rivers, fire, and migrations that refuse to obey boundaries. Across thousands of years, Indigenous peoples knew and used this country before explorers, railroads, soldiers, tourists, scientists, and lawmakers transformed the way it was understood.

William Stanek's The Living Yellowstone Biography tells the sweeping life story behind America's first national park-from fire beneath the earth and life above it to the invention of Yellowstone, the mistakes made in managing it, the return of wolves, the changing meaning of wilderness, and the unfinished work of protecting a living system.

This is Yellowstone beyond the postcard: ancient, contested, resilient, and still becoming.

Mythic Plants - Potions and...

Ellen Zachos

In this beautifully illustrated book that's Song of Achilles meets Secret Life of Trees, readers will discover the plants cultivated by the Greek Gods–many of which can still be experimented with today–for a myriad of uses.  In Greek mythology, plants were used for tools, intoxication, warfare, food, medicine, magic, and rituals. When Prometheus stole fire from the Olympian gods and gave it to mankind, he hid it in a stalk of giant fennel. Ancient Greeks waiting to question the oracles were given cannabis as part of their cleansing rituals. A quince fruit started the Trojan war. The goddess Demeter was so distraught when Hades kidnapped her daughter that she caused winter to blanket the earth, killing all plants. Mythic Plants focuses on how the ancient Greeks used plants in their lives and loves and conquests—some of which we can still use. Includes tips throughout for bringing these ancient plants into your garden.

Take to the Trees - A Story of...

Marguerite Holloway

Journalist Marguerite Holloway arrives at the Women's Tree Climbing Workshop as a climbing novice, but with a passion for trees and a deep concern about their future. Run by twin sister tree doctors Bear LeVangie and Melissa LeVangie Ingersoll, the workshop helps people develop impressive technical skills and ascend into the canopy. As Holloway tackles unfamiliar equipment and dizzying heights, she learns about the science of trees and tells the stories of charismatic species, including hemlock, aspen, Atlantic white cedar, oak, and beech. She spotlights experts who are chronicling the great dying that is underway in forests around the world as trees face simultaneous and accelerating threats from drought, heat, floods, disease, and other disruptions. 
 
 
 
As she climbs, Holloway also comes to understand the profound significance of trees in her relationship with her late mother and brother. The book's rousing final chapter offers something new: a grander environmental and arboreal optimism, in which the story of trees and their resilience meshes with that of people working to steward the forests of the future, and of community found among fellow tree climbers. A lyrical work of memoir and reportage, Take to the Trees sounds the alarm about rapid arboreal decline while also offering hope about how we might care for our forests and ourselves.
