BOOK OF THE MONTH: Gathering Moss A Natural and Cultural History of Mosses by Robin Wall Kimmerer
Ms. Kimmerer is a professor of environmental biology and the director of the Centre for Native Peoples and the Environment at the State University of New York in Syracuse. She is a member of the Citizen Potawatomi Nation of Oklahoma. I simply love Robin Wall Kimmerer's prose. This collection of essays is informative, interesting and at least one of the essays was a bit shocking. Gathering Moss was first published in 2003 and has become quite popular in the last couple of years.
