Sadly, we cannot review everything we receive here at EcoLit Books — but I did want to highlight a few new and newly republished works…
The Lives and Deaths of Shelter Animals
by Katy M. Guenther
Stanford University Press
For the Birds: Protecting Wildlife through the Naturalist Gaze
by Elizabeth Cherry
Rutgers University Press
Butterfly: Poems by Miriam Sorrel
“BUTTERFLY touches the heart, stirs the mind and fires the spirit. Miriam Sorrell’s poems have emotional power, intellectual edge and playful wit. They are stamped with Miriam’s love of Nature above all. Buy, beg, borrow or steal a copy.” — Marie Benoît, Features Editor, The Malta Independent
Talking with Bears: Conversations with Charlie Russell by G.A. Bradshaw
“A highly literary and reflective portrait of Charlie Russell’s beautiful and unparalleled relationship with some of our planet’s most majestic giants.”
Earth Abides by George R. Stewart
“A glorious new trade paperback complete with an original Introduction written by author Kim Stanley Robinson.”
The Edge of Elsewhere by Sam Stea
“An adventure set in a colorless world reeling from ecological collapse where a young trio discover a notebook that takes them back to New York City 1971 and rediscovers the beauty of the natural world — and fights to restore that beauty before time runs out.”
