Reckoning the Earth

Along a winding road in a small town outside Cincinnati there sprawls Long Branch Farm, appearing like any other. This is not just any farm, though; it is part of the Cincinnati nature Center, and it exists solely to teach people, especially children, about the natural world, through a working farm that uses the everyday miracles of the land to demonstrate the interrelatedness of living things. In Reckoning the Earth, promising new author Sandra Murphy shares these miracles in a series of unforgettable essays.
