Review:
"Peter Matthiessen is an original and powerful artist who has produced as impressive a body of work as that of any writer of our time. Both as a novelist and as a naturalist he has immeasurably enlarged our consciousness" (William Styron)
"Matthiessen-is a writer of great integrity, who lives the life he writes, and yet whose scathing critique of our all-consuming, all-exploiting society is also realistic" (Scotland on Sunday)
"Our greatest modern nature writer in the lyrical tradition" (Stephen Jay Gould)
