Finch, David Death of a Hornet and Other Cape Cod Essays
Counterpoint,U.S. 2001 1582431388 / 9781582431383 First Edition Trade Paperback Very Good Trade Paperback
Book is solid, tight and clean; no creasing to spine. Some folded edges at bottom corner, slight sticker remains on front cover, and crease to bottom front cover corner (not visable from exterior). "Spanning more than 20 years, these essays record changes not only in the natural environment of Cape Cod but in the writer's own life. Death of a Hornet is one man's elegant rendering of Cape Cod, a sandy, scrub-oaked, tough, and vulnerable spit of land reaching out into the Atlantic Ocean. These stories are "natural adventures" that Finch's previous readers have come to expect, as well as longer meditations on the future of the Cape's fragile environment, on living in one place for a long time, and on the limitations of human sympathy."

Levin, Ted Backtracking: The Way of a Naturalist
Chelsea Green Pub Co White River Jct, VT 1988 0930031156 / 9780930031152 Trade Paperback Very Good + Trade Paperback
Book is clean and tight; no creasing to spine, and no marks to interior. Light wear to edges and corners. Out of print. '"When I come upon an animal's tracks in the woods, I find myself moving back against the animal's direction to trace where it started from," Ted Levin writes in Backtracking: The Way of a Naturalist. He also traces his own development as a naturalist from his boyhood roots on suburban Long Island to his present life in northern New England. Along the way he introduces us to all sorts of wild creatures-from red-backed salamanders, cicadas, and rattlesnakes to manatees, coyotes, and bald eagles. Backtracking is full of fascinating facts and unusual observations. Levin reveals how accessible the natural world can be; we need look no farther than our own backyards to find it.'
