No bottom

the long version

Poet and wildland firefighter Mike Newell in an absorbing dialogue with literary virtuoso and fellow Earth-attendant Barry Lopez. Lewis Hyde wrote, *“This book shows once again why many of us think of Barry Lopez as a national treasure,”* while Patrick Meanor added, *“What emerges is as inevitable as a Bach fugue–sharp clarity and an elaborate mandala of insight into Lopez's life work.”* Includes a compelling interview and a Newell essay on Lopez's short fiction.
