Author Douglas Wood charts his journey through the wilds of nature and the twists and turns of daily life in his memoir Deep Woods, Wild Waters. Like life itself, the author’s way was not linear. His memoir traces the winding path that led him from one wonder to the next, through a landscape of rocks, woods and waters, with many stops along the way. The author of 34 books, including the classic Old Turtle, and an expert woodsman and wilderness canoe guide, Wood not only takes us on a journey through nature, but of mind and spirit, too.—Breana Roy
