Item description from seller

Fine unread condition color photographic softcover wraps. Includes Acknowledgments; Dedication; Introduction; and Notes. Profusely illustrated with color photographs. Signed by the author with silver marker directly under her printed name on the full title page. "Learn Inspiring Truths From Nature. In Dancing Feathers, Janie Greene takes us on a journey of discovery through her reflective essays, and sensitive photographs. In pursuit of her need for solitude we accompany her as she uncovers secrets to a more fulfilling life. Each step along the way brings us closer to a deeper appreciation of nature as we are transported by her words and photographs into the mystical realm of southern swamps, ponds, and rookeries. Dancing Feathers takes us on an inspirational journey into the world of nature as it explores Nature's truths, embraces a love and care for the earth, and exalts God and His creation." - from the rear outer cover. "After a night's rest, I was back in the rookery in the pre-dawn hours wanting to photograph the birds in that first warm glow of early sunlight. Getting all the equipment in was a chore, but once I was set up, it was like drinking a cup of pure, blissful joy. Back home, I'd always loved photographing my roses in their different stages of bloom, but here in the rookery were flowers that flew, flowers that cried out in anger, flowers that sang .beautiful flowers with wings. As I set up my tripod, I looked back at the dark tree shadows spilling themselves flat over the field behind me, leaving in their wake millions of sparkling dew drops hanging like Christmas ornaments on the stems of the grassy carpet. I was thankful I'd found my way once again to the place that made my heart sing." - from the French-style extended inner front cover flap.…

Store description

Vero Beach Books is an antiquarian bookseller with a constantly updated inventory of rare out-of-print books, signed books, children's books, plus a large inventory of ephemeral items such as major U.S. city newspapers going back 100 years and more, golden and silver age fine condition comic books (soon to be added), and many other ephemeral items as well as much more recent popular volumes. We have been in business for 25 years, originally known as Emerson Books (named after one of our owner's favorite authors, to wit, Ralph Waldo Emerson) located back then in Westport, Connecticut. That said, we are here to serve you, to offer you fine quality items that are conservatively described so that you will always be pleasantly surprised and delighted with your purchase. Twenty-five years in the bookselling business has borne out our stellar service oriented reputation; the only difference is that now we are located in the almost always sunny and warm climate of Vero Beach, Florida. Again, we are here to serve you and, as was the case when we were previously known on ABEBooks.com as Emerson Books, we will continue to offer our very popular 100% free search service for those hard to find books rare and out of print books. Oftentimes we are also able to obtain these rare finds at very good discounts to our customers' so it is always worth contacting us in such cases!
