To those who know the charm of Aldo Leopold's writing in A Sand County Almanac, this collection from his journals and essays will be a new delight.

They reflect as well two long canoe trips in Canada and a sojourn in Mexico, where Leopold hunted dee...

Der hier erstmals vollständig übersetzte und um die wichtigsten Essays ergänzte Almanach des Pioniers des ökologischen Denkens zählt zu den wirkmächtigsten Schriften über die Folgen des menschlichen Eingriffs in das komplexe Zusammenspiel der Wildnis. Als in den 30er-Jahren auch die bisher größte Dürre in den Great Plains nicht zu einem Umdenken in den USA führt, bricht Aldo Leopold nach Deutschland auf, um im Land seiner Vorfahren Anregungen...
