Voices for the Land: Minnesotans Write About the Places They Love by Brian Peter

Description: Voices for the Land by Brian Peterson A celebration of the special bond Minnesotans have with the land expressed through compelling essays and beautiful photographs. FORMAT Paperback LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description In this extraordinary tribute to the importance of the ordinary places in our lives, fifty-two Minnesotans write about the special, sometimes secret, places that give their lives meaning. For some it is their home or cabin or lake. For others, its a family farm or neighbourhood park, a backyard garden or north woods trail: all places where we find a personal and spiritual connection to the land. VOICES FOR THE LAND explores this complex relationship by linking these personal essays with striking images captured by award-winning photographer Brian Peterson. This marriage of words, images, and landscape provides a powerful reminder of our deep and abiding connection to the land. The writers share the experience of these favourite places through their senses, from the aching tingle of a cold winter night and the sound of ice singing to the buzz of mosquitoes and the acrid smell of burning peat. The Voices for the Land project, organised by the non-profit group 1000 Friends of Minnesota, encouraged Minnesotans to write about the land they love and to fight for its preservation.The Minneapolis Star Tribune published a selection of these essays, paired with Brian Petersons photos, in an award-winning series. VOICES FOR THE LAND brings these essays and photos together in book form for the first time.
