Book Synopsis
Chronicles one family's journey to Idaho, with all of its uncertainties, promises, and hopes. The book explores their encounters with a place still partly wild, whose communities and landscapes teach them how to respect the earth and each other.

Trade Review
“Beautifully written… no ends-of-the-earth, cliff-top drama here, but the quiet pleasure of watching the flight of hawks through a kitchen window, taking a night walk along an Idaho river, getting rid of a no-longer useful wood stove, or observing moose while in the company of children on a family vacation… unique in its quiet emphasis on the day-to-day rewards of observing the natural life at hand, almost always within the context of a human family…” — Mary Clearman Blew, author of Jackalope Dreams
