| Publisher Description: The diverse shapes of nature amid the equally diverse wonders of wild Arizona illuminate the world of Clear Creek. This collection features essays written for Judson D. McGehee's weekly column, "Northland Nature", which ran in the Arizona Daily Sun for over a decade. Influenced by writers such as John Muir and Henry Thoreau, the author has cultivated the art of the nature essay to chronicle his own wilderness journeys. Dr. McGehee taught for thirty years at Northern Arizona University, where he drew from his lifelong love of books and the outdoors to inspire his students in English and Creative Writing. As each essay leads the reader through an intimate, shared experience with nature, his words celebrate a passion for poetry and eloquent language-language that lovingly paints a portrait, capturing visions and details both great and small, and wholly transporting the reader to one place within a vast landscape, one moment within the rippling flow of time. |
