Seller's Description:
Very good in good dust jacket. Book very good condition, pages clean, binding tight, dust jacket in good condition, shows self wear and has a chip out of the bottom of the cover. 160 p. What is life? It is the flash of a firefly in the night. It is the breath of a buffalo in wintertime. It is the little shadow which runs across the grass and loses itself in the sunset. Dying words of Crowfoot, a Blackfoot Indian (1890) I think I would add to Crowfoot s beautiful definition of life that is is also the scream of the prairie falcon from the canyon wall. For me no living creature seems more alive than the swift keen bird that courses the sky where prairie meets mountain. -Philip S. Callahan-first paragraph of Birds and How They Function
