From the Back Cover
This book is the author's own tasting of the dirt, his effort to find out where he is. It records his attempt to fashion a life that is firmly grounded--in household and community, in knowledge of place, in awareness of nature, and in contact with that source from which all things rise. The author aspires to become an inhabitant, one who knows and honors the land.
