The wisdom of wilderness

The natural world has a power to inspire the best and soothe the worst in each of us. In his last work, beloved author Gerald May offers a memoir and spiritual guide that reveals the lessons available when we retreat from our busy lives to the serenity of the natural wilderness. He expresses the healing and wholeness of spending time in the wild--hiking, camping, canoeing, fishing, or just sitting. Wilderness can be found anywhere--a garden, a park, perhaps in one's own room, or even in other people. Wherever we find it, it calls to what is natural in each of our hearts, reassuring us that we are part of something bigger and teaching us how to make peace with the outer world and with our inner selves.--From publisher description.
