This latest collection of poems from James McGrath aims to excite and honor the spirit of the natural world for the environmentalist, the artist, and the child in each of us. His poems, and Margreta Overbecks drawings, celebrate and illuminate the essence of the natural world from ants through mountains to wolves. Their combination of poetry and drawings reflect their growing up in the natural world--McGrath in the Pacific Northwest, Overbeck in the mountains of Colorado. James McGrath is known for his narrative poetry in the six KAET/PBS American Indian Artists Series in the 1970s. He has been published in seventeen anthologies and was poet-artist in residence with USIS Arts American in Yemen in the 1990s. Two previous books of poetry were published by Sunstone Press: "At the Edgelessness of Light" and "Speaking with Magpies." The latter received a Finalist Award in Poetry in the 2008 New Mexico Book Awards.
