<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"With the eye of a biologist and the soul of an artist, Tim Goodwin guides the reader on a personal and educational journey through the Northwoods of the Great Lakes Region"--Back cover.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><b>"We do not own these woods. They own us" - Timothy Goodwin</b></p><p><strong><br></strong></p><p> <p/></p><p><i>"(This book) is arresting, like the wee lesson at the end of an Aesop's fable. All who spend time in the woods ... will deeply<br>appreciate this book." -Minneapolis Star Tribune</i></p><p> <p/></p>Goodwin's book is an intimate journey into the Northwoods. As a biologist, musician and artist, he explores the diversity of life, from flora to fauna, who live in the forest near his cabin in the woods. This book is truly like walking through the woods with a good friend who has a scientific eye and the soul of an artist. Includes 60 original illustrations by the author.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"This book provides an antidote for those who want to recover a sense of belonging and meaning. Like Thoreau, Goodwin shows that nature can help us become our truest selves and lead lives of fulfillment and joy." -David Backes, author of <em>A Wilderness Within</em>, and editor of<em> A Private Wilderness</em></p><p>"It is the love of place, a love that many will share and find so beautifully expressed, that ties everything together and makes this volume a treasure for any cabin book shelf." -Douglas Wood, author of <em>Old Turtle</em><br></p><p>"Within These Woods delivers an intimate and knowledgeable perspective on the flora and fauna of the Minnesota forest. It transports us from the page and into the wild. That transforms our worldview. When you really get to know something it is impossible to be ambivalent about its destruction." -Anton Treuer, author of <em>Everything You Wanted to Know About Indians But Were Afraid to Ask</em><br></p><p>"Goodwin's essays and drawings aren't just a walk through nature; rather, they each strive to establish the relationship between creatures and humans... Though I am a country boy, familiar with many of the animals described, each essay taught me something entirely new thanks to Goodwin's detailed observations and clear, sincere writing." -Aaron J. Brown, Host of The Great Northern Radio Show (KAXE), and author of <em>Overburden: Modern Life on the Iron Range</em><br></p><p>"If you are a lover of the natural world, and the study thereof, this book will simply make you feel good." -Daniel J. Rice, author of <em>The Unpeopled Season</em><br></p><br>
