Voice from the Sea: And Other Reflections on Wildlife & Wilderness
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Voice from the Sea covers five decades of Margaret Owingss writing and conveys the passion that underlies her lifetime commitment to the preservation of wilderness. Her essays, poetry and art weave the voices of the sea, the forests and wildlife into a rich tapestry of passion for the natural world. Margarets lyrical words evoke images of storm-tossed seas, ancient redwood glades, moonlit nights in Africa, cliff dwellings of the Southwest and the artists, writers and friends who shared her fascination with nature, and fierce sense of stewardship.
