Description
Book SynopsisJohn Nichols fell in love with nature as a child when his father and grandfather, both naturalists, taught him the names of the flowers and trees, the herons and butterflies they encountered on walks. In
My Heart Belongs to Nature, Nichols records his forty-five-year connection to the Taos valley and its mountains, where he still lives.
Trade Review“Such soulfulness! John Nichols has traveled up and down the highest peaks in the Sangre de Cristo Mountains, across the wide plateau that cradles the Río Grande Gorge, and deep into the riverine where he has mastered boulder-dancing and fly-fishing. His photographs portray nature’s artistry, and his prose restores the reader’s mind to Nature’s flow.”—Jack Loeffler, author of
Adventures with Ed: A Portrait of Abbey“This is the book all who love nature would write if only we were John Nichols and had his photographic eye. It’s a photographic scrapbook from a lifetime of observing, experiencing, and loving nature, in all its forms, alone or with children and beloved friends.”—Robert Julyan, author of
