The historic Hollister ranch -- 39,000 acres in Santa Barbara County, California -- belonged to the authors' family for more than 100 years, until 1961 when the family was forced to subdivide & sell the property. This book is a tribute to those once-wild lands & an evocative contribution to our understanding of the psychological & philosophical importance of all wilderness. This unusual collaborative work by a mother daughter -- both Jungian analysts raised on the ranch -- blends childhood memories, journal excerpts, & rich insights to reveal just how deeply humanity's psyche is rooted in the natural world.
