Quiet Magic (Outdoor Essays & Reflections) by Sam Cook

Lovely. [a:Patrick Mcmanus|1253093|Patrick Mcmanus|http://www.goodreads.com/images/nophoto/nophoto-U-50x66.jpg] with flashes of wit instead of unrelenting hilarity. Reverent, without being spiritual in either the Christian or tree-hugger sense, and with a light touch.
