Was it worth it? : a wilderness warrior's long trail home / Doug Peacock. by Peacock, Doug, author. Ventura, CA : Patagonia, [2022] Subjects Peacock, Doug.   Outdoorsmen -- Biography.   Natural history. ISBN:  9781952338045 (paper over board : hardback) : 1952338042 (paper over board : hardback) Description:  304 pages : illustrations (chiefly color) ; 23 cm Edition:  Hardcover edition. Requests:  0 Summary:  "Recounting sojourns with Abbey, but also Peter Matthiessen, Doug Tompkins, Jim Harrison, Yvon Chouinard and others, Peacock observes that what he calls "solitary walks" were the greatest currency he and his buddies ever shared. He asserts that "solitude is the deepest well I have encountered in this life," and the introspection it affords has made him who he is: a lifelong protector of the wilderness and its many awe-inspiring inhabitants. With adventures both close to home (grizzlies in Yellowstone and jaguars in the high Sonoran Desert) and farther afield (tigers in Siberia, jaguars again in Belize, spirit bears in the wilds of British Columbia, all the amazing birds of the Galapagos), Peacock acknowledges that Covid 19 has put "everyone's mortality in the lens now and it's not necessarily a telephoto shot." Peacock recounts these adventures to try to understand and explain his perspective on Nature: That wilderness is the only thing left worth saving."--Amazon.com.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Art, Music & Recreation 796.5092 Peacock Pe Checked In Add Copy to MyList Pahoa P/S Library Adult Nonfiction 796.5092 Pe missing from shelf Add Copy to MyList
