Bruce’s Garden Summer Reading Series begins on Wednesday, June 26 at 6:30 when noted Thoreau scholar, Geoff Wisner will read from his newest book, A Year of Birds. Geoff has researched Thoreau’s careful observations of the natural world for many years. In this book he thoughtfully arranged selections of Henry David Thoreau’s writings on birds by days within year, emphasizing the relationship of birds with their environment and the spiritual significance of the seasons.
The book begins with a foreword by celebrated naturalist Peter Alden, the author of numerous Audubon Field Guides and includes 150 color illustrations by renowned bird artist Barry Van Dusen.
Each year the reading series dedicates a talk to the memory of the noted geologist Sid Horestein (1938-2018). Geoff’s book on Thoreau’s close observations of nature is in keeping with Sid’s insights into our neighborhood’s geological wonders.
