Ways of Wood Folk

The forest is full of neighbors, if you know how to watch. Naturalist William J. Long spent years moving quietly through the woods of New England and Canada, and these sketches share what he saw: the fox's cunning, the deer's caution, owls, crows, and porcupines going about their secret lives. Written for curious listeners of every age, each chapter is a small adventure told with warmth and wonder. This is nature listening at its most companionable, perfect for a walk or a fireside evening. Step softly into the trees and meet the wood folk.
