by William Least Heat Moon (Author)
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER. By the author of Blue Highways, PrairyErth is "a majestic survey of land and time and people in a single county of the Kansas plains" (Hungry Mind Review).
William Least Heat-Moon travels by car and on foot into the core of our continent, focusing on the landscape and history of Chase County--a sparsely populated tallgrass prairie in the Flint Hills of central Kansas--exploring its land, plants, animals, and people until this small place feels as large as the universe.
Called a "modern-day Walden" by the Chicago Sun-Times, PrairyErth is a journey through place, through time, and into the human mind from the acclaimed author of Here, There, Elsewhere: Stories from the Road.
"A sense of the American grain that will give [PrairyErth] a permanent place in the literature of our country."--Paul Theroux, New York Times
