<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><strong><em>Tracks in the Sand</em> is a collection of essays that maps the contours of a layered life.</strong></p><p><br></p><p>Outdoorsman and cattle farmer H. Turney McKnight writes about the natural world with the grace of a poet and the ease of a seasoned storyteller. From rivers in the Russian Arctic and Chesapeake Bay to the mountains of Idaho, McKnight leads readers across the varied landscape of his experiences.</p><p><br></p><p>In language sometimes as rippled and salty as the mid-Atlantic coastal marshes he writes about, McKnight punctuates his prose with equal parts humor and wit, reverence and humility. He recounts adventures (and misadventures) on high mountain slopes and sea-level streams, fond memories of polo and pond hockey, the perennial delight of the calving season on his Harford County farm, and a culinary misstep with a snapping turtle. Whether toting rod, gun, or binoculars, McKnight's experiences have been shaped by ceaseless wonderment of the natural world, the study of which comes through in his writing.</p><p><br></p><p>Written in the tradition of Norman Maclean's <em>A River Runs Through It</em>, the resulting collection memorializes the author's bottomless gratitude for the people, animals, and places woven into its pages.</p>
