The Last Undiscovered Place
ISBN: 9780813922645 / Angielski / Twarda / 2004 / 247 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. With warmth and a keen eye for the nuances of history and place, David K. Leff offers this affectionate, insightful portrait of his adopted home of Coilinsville, Connecticut, a village that looked perfectly ordinary until he fell prey to its rhythms and charm. The town taught him a new way of seeing his environment, and through this process he discovered what many Americans long for amid the suburban sprawl decried in James H. Kunstler's The Geography of Nowhere and many other recent books: a sense of community. When Leff began to look for a suitable place to raise a family, his criteria were...

Hidden in Plain Sight: A Deep Traveler Explores Connecticut
ISBN: 9780819574664 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In the course of the mundane routines of life, we encounter a variety of landscapes and objects, either ignoring them or looking without interest at what appears to be just a tree, stone, anonymous building, or dirt road. But the "deep traveler," according to Hartford Courant essayist David K. Leff, doesn't make this mistake. Instead, the commonplace elements become the most important. By learning to see the magic in the mundane, we not only enrich daily life with a sense of place, we are more likely to protect and make those places better. Over his many years working at the Connecticut...

Deep Travel: In Thoreau's Wake on the Concord and Merrimack
ISBN: 9781587297892 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In the hot summer of 2004, David Leff floated away from the routine of daily life just as Henry David Thoreau and his brother had done in their own small boat in 1839. Fortified with Thoreau s observations as revealed in" A Week on the Concord and Merrimack Rivers," Leff brought his own concept of mindful deep travel to these same New England waterways. His first-person narrative uses his ecological way of looking, of going deep rather than far, to show that our outward journeys are inseparable from our inward ones.
How we see depends on where we are in our lives and with whom we travel.... In the hot summer of 2004, David Leff floated away from the routine of daily life just as Henry David Thoreau and his brother had done in their own sm...
