When grass goes gold and the bright, still air is full of milkweed silk and cricket song, the daddy longlegs goes a-courting. So begins one of Ted Williams's essays on summer in this seasonal chronicle of the natural world. With the eye of a naturalist, the curiosity of a journalist, and the heart of a poet, Williams beckons us to walk with him through the year, to peer with him into ponds and nests and up at the night sky, and to bear witness to nature's ephemeral moments and miracles. Williams's words invite us to pause and experience "what is pure and clean and right with the world." His clarity of perception and evocative writing call our attention to the planet's complex and fragile beauty and remind us just how much we stand to lose when we stop noticing.
