Review:
"There has been a recent spate of books nominally about finding a sense of place but more accurately described as quests for community, or for home... The best of the lot is Tall's book about putting down roots in Geneva, New York." -- Utne Reader
"If the earth could speak it would speak in the manner of this book: rambling, in circles, like hills and drifting rivers. Tall's patient writing is a pleasure." -- Buffalo News
"A worthy contribution to the growing field of landscape studies... Like Thoreau, who claimed to have travelled much in Concord, the author of From Where We Stand has travelled much -- widely and deeply -- in the Finger Lakes." -- New York History
"In the literature of place, Deborah Tall's book stands out for its delicacy, range of learning, and refreshing frankness." -- Phillip Lopate
